“Delightful. This humorous follow-up is even stronger than its
predecessor and will leave readers hoping for a third book
featuring Bat and his family.” — School Library Journal
“A gentle tale of shared similarities rather than differences that
divide and a fine read-aloud with a useful but not didactic message
of acceptance.” — Kirkus Reviews
A winsome blend of humor and heart, vibrant characters, and
laugh-out-loud dialogue. Arnold’s narrative also gracefully
explores life through the eyes of a boy on the autism
spectrum. The ever-lovable Bat is sure to resonate with
readers of all ages. — Booklist Online
