Not only that, but his best friend is leaving for a long vacation in Canada. Summer promises good things, too, like working with his mom at the vet clinic and hanging out with his sister, Janie. But Bat cant help but feel that everything is coming to an end. National Book Award finalist Elana K. Arnold returns with the third story starring an unforgettable boy on the autism spectrum.

“Shh,” Bat whispered, not wanting to disturb the skunk, still curled in his arms, the end of his tail tucked over his nose. “He‘s right here.” Mom came into the room and across to the bed, peering over Bat to see the sleeping skunk. “Oh,” she said, “he‘s with you.” “We took a nap,” Bat said. His arm was stiff and tingly from being in”

I really enjoyed this book! This book discusses real life challenges that a boy, whose nickname is BAT, goes through as a young boy. I feel that this book accurately portrays real like situations and problems that young kids go through. I would for sure read this in my own classroom some day!

A story about getting made fun of for his nickname and having autism. A story about how he becomes friends with others and learns to live life to the fullest
