Today, though, is a good-surprise day. Bat’s mom, a veterinarian, has brought home a baby skunk, which she needs to take care of until she can hand him over to a wild-animal shelter.\nBut the minute Bat meets the kit, he knows they belong together. And he’s got one month to show his mom that a baby skunk might just make a pretty terrific pet.\n\"This sweet and thoughtful novel chronicles Bat’s experiences and challenges at school with friends and teachers and at home with his sister and divorced parents. Approachable for younger or reluctant readers while still delivering a powerful and thoughtful story\" (from the review by Brightly, which named A Boy Called Bat a best book of the year).\nElana K. Arnold's Bat series is a proven winner in the home and classroom—kids love these short illustrated young middle grade books.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0062445839\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: HBSV.0062445839.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Arnold, Elana K.|Santoso, Charles\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book  is in good condition and has some writing, underlining, and or highlighting inside.
