Book Reviews of Stellaluna

Book Review: Stellar Stellaluna (OK...not very creative)
Summary: 4 Stars

Stellaluna is a precious story that is beautifully illustrated. A young bat falls from her mother's grip during an owl attack and lands in a nest of baby birds. They notice one another's differences when Stellaluna has a distaste for grasshoppers and hangs upside down. She struggles to obey the rules of the nest, but does her best to fit in. Finally, she happens upon some bats and learns that her ways are not wrong - just different.

I deducted one point for the same reason as the reviewer with an adopted son who gave this just one point. I wish the author had been a little less harsh in the wording of the mama bird who threatened to kick Stellaluna out of the nest if she didn't obey their rules. Maybe there could have been consequences or merely a request to keep the rules in order to not endanger the other young birds.
