Stellaluna


Stellaluna is an Abby award winner and is a lovely story about a fruit bat who is orphaned very young after an owl attacks their family. Stellaluna then finds herself in a bird's nest where sh is taken in as family and starts to act as if she was a bird as well.....sleeping at night and hanging by her hands, not upside down. Stella the comes upon some of her fellow bats who marvel at how different Stella is. This is a cute story that is accompanied by some beautiful pictures. In the end Stella brings together the birds and the bats. This can teach children to put differences aside.
