Bixby Alexander Tam prefers to be called Bat. He loves animals and he will be a veterinarian one day. When his mother, also a veterinarian, brings home a baby skunk one day because its mother was killed, Bat falls in love with it, despite the fact that his mother warns him not to get attached because they will only be keeping it for a month. It is a quick, sweet story about a boy on the autism spectrum, and how he sees the world. I adored his teacher, Mr. Grayson, who understands Bat and helps him navigate school in small but important ways. (FIC ARN)
