| Baby bat Stellaluna’s life is flitting along right on
schedule—until an owl attacks her mother one night,
knocking the bewildered batlet out of her mother’s
loving grasp. The tiny bat is lucky enough to land in a
nest of baby birds, but her whole world has just
turned upside down. Literally. Stellaluna’s adoptive
bird mom accepts her into her nest, but only on the
condition that Stellaluna will act like a bird, not a bat.
Soon Stellaluna has learned to behave like a good
bird should—she quits hanging by her feet and starts
eating bugs. But when she finally has an opportunity
to show her bird siblings what life as a bat is like, all
of them are confounded. Anyone who has ever been
asked to be someone they’re not will understand the
conflicts—and possibilities—Stellaluna faces. |
