Chubby Heart
Susanna Tamaro
The challenges of an overweight child who teaches his parents
a thing or two about body shaming..
Michele is a lonely child whose separated parents are obsessed with his appearance. His refrigerator is his best friend and only companion, and his enemy is the doctor at the fat camp where his parents have sent him to lose weight.
Transformed into a bat, Michele flies above and beyond the city to collect clues into the nature (and secrets) of adults only to return home with surprising insight that will change his life.
