Accepting a backyard bat as a character may be abnormal for readers at first, but by the end of the novel, the stories of kate and the bat blend together very well. the addition of the bat avoids this work from being labelled as merely charmingly predictable teen fiction. the story does not develop into a children’s tale of speaking animals. it instead shows two points of view on kate’s life. though the idea of chapters switching viewpoints seems dizzying, it is no more severe than the sway of a backyard swing. based on paragraph 5 of the book review, what did the reader most likely have difficulty with when he began reading the book? a) he had trouble reading the small print. b) he had trouble understanding kate's point of view. c) he had trouble thinking of a bat as a character. d) he had trouble understanding some of the vocabulary used.
