well to see your abbs you have to get rid of the fat, simple as that, if you do abbs without getting rid of fat then your stomach will stick out a lil further , because of the muscle under the fat you built. Abbs are a muscle that is built mainly in a kitchen, you have to eat right, good clean carbs and proteins, low fat. And a good amount of cardio wouldn't hurt either. But your 5'2" 97 lbs you don't seem over weight to me anyways.
as for abb excercises here goes........
sit ups
crucnches
v ups
altnating v ups
machine crunches
twisting crunches
elbows high crunches
suit cases
crunches on a decline
***lower abbs.........
roman chair leg lifts
reverse crunches
leg raises
hanging reverse crunches
*** sides( obliques)
side crunches
twisters
side v's
twisting leg raises
like I said before though you can do these all you want. without a good diet then it won't help any, and you be wasting your time. Also you need on some excercises to put restistance( weight) on your abbs. (ex) 10lbs across your chest and do sit ups. Every one has a 6 pack, just some gotta lil "insulation" around it

Abs are a direct byproduct of the kitchen. No amount of ab training without proper diet will expose abs. That is what all those commercials trying to sell you ab workouts fail to tell you up front. Without changing your diet, the most you will see is a fatter belly, the new muscle under the fat pushing it out even farther. So, that being said, diet is what will bring them out. First be happy with your overall muscle size, because when you work for abs, you will gain no more muscle. You must create a caloric deficit to tap into your fat stores, thus no new muscle will be created. Work the abs with resistance, do not just do crunches. Train them heavy and hard, like you would any other muscle, then let them rest and recouperate. With the correct diet, the upper layer of fat will come off and you will see what you have built.
