BABY SEE-THROUGH
Baby See-Through is about a baby bat born later than all the other babies in her colony. The other babies laugh at her because she has not yet grown fur, and they could see through her delicate pink skin. The book shows how differences become strengths, and that kindness overcomes bullying when everyone’s gifts are valued.
