Bat and the Waiting Game

By Elana K. Arnold

Book Overview

In the tradition of Clementine and Ramona Quimby, meet Bat. Author Elana K. Arnold returns with another irresistible story of friendship in this Schneider Award Honor-winning series starring an unforgettable boy on the autism spectrum.

For Bixby Alexander Tam (nicknamed Bat), life is pretty great. He's the caretaker of the best baby skunk in the world--even Janie, his older sister, is warming up to Thor.
When Janie gets a part in the school play and can't watch Bat after school, it means some pretty big changes. Someone else has to take care of the skunk kit in the afternoons, Janie is having sleepovers with her new friends, and Bat wants everything to go back to normal.
He just has to make it to the night of Janie's performance. . . .
Elana K. Arnold's Bat series is a proven winner in the home and classroom--kids love these short
illustrated young middle grade books. Other books include A Boy Called Bat, Bat and the End of Everything, and Bat and the Business of Ferrets.
