This is Bertie Bat. Bats have great sight. Not Bertie the Bat, not even at night.
Ever since he was born, he was unable to see, forever flying into things or perched on the
wrong tree. While he'd love better vision, and he wishes for that, Bertie's eyesight doesn't
stop him from being a typical bat. Shriek! I am a super bat with the shriekiest squeal.
My ears can hear silence. My wings are stronger steel. Bertie flies super fast. He has a good
sense of smell. His hearing is supersonic and his teeth sharp as well. But Bertie gets frustrated
at his lack of precision and the mistakes that he makes due to his poor vision. He has been caught
in branches and once flew into a chimney pot. His other senses can't always save him, though
they often help a lot. I am a super bat with the shriekiest squeal. My ears can hear silence.
My wings are stronger steel. But then came the day, well, it was actually night,
that Bertie got into trouble and had quite a fright. What he thought was a cave turned out
to be the boot of a van. As he accidentally flew into it, the doors were closed by a man.
Poor Bertie was stuck in unfamiliar surroundings. No food. No friends. His little heart
pounding. I'm not a super bat. Just a bat with no sight. A blind super bat. Now that doesn't
sound right. Bertie stretched his spindly fingers to find a hanging platform. He hung wrapped in
his wings to try and keep himself warm. A small tear he shed. It rolled down his furry cheek.
Then he suddenly remembered how shriekishly he could squeak. He gripped his perch firmly,
his claws holding on tight, getting him ready to fall straight into flight. I am a super bat
with the shriekiest squeal. My ears can hear silence. My wings are stronger steel. He heard
sound outside, so he knew someone was near. He thought, if I screech really loudly, perhaps
someone will hear shriek. An almighty screech that made the van shake, the turn of a handle,
and Bertie escaped. Flying at such speed with his wings stretched out wide, Bertie's senses
had saved him and he shouted with pride. I'm a blind super bat with senses so refined,
brave and intelligent, one of a kind. His impeccable hearing, his rip-roaring song,
his own super powers were what he needed all along. We are all a bit different and the world
would be bleak if everyone was the same, not special or unique. Bertie may be different
and unable to see, but his bravery is inspirational. Wouldn't you agree?
The end. Wasn't that awesome, kids? Always remember, what makes you different
is what makes you beautiful. I'll see you soon in another adventure.
