Ranch’s novel presents characterization through Kate’s interactions with her parents and with the bat. The bat wants to belong to Kate’s family just as she is trying to break from the comforts of home and make new friends. Like the bat in the backyard tree, Ranch maintains enough distance from his characters to avoid interfering with too many details. Ranch’s writing style suggests his own great love of people-watching. Without being too sweet or dramatic, Sleeping Upside-Down is a wonderful story worth exploring.
