Bookroo's summary

Bat's new home brings skepticism from her wild neighbors, who think her view of the world is upside down. But when wise Owl encourages them to see from Bat's perspective, everything changes. Can a shift in viewpoint reveal unexpected truths?

From the publisher

All the young wild animals think Bat is mad. How can she say that a tree has the trunk at the top and the leaves at the bottom? Until, that is, they consult wise Owl who suggests that if they just try looking at things from Bat’s point of view, they might see things very differently.
