Summary: Stellaluna is about a baby fruit bat named Stellaluna who gets knocked out of her mothers embrace by an owl. She lands into a strange nest that is occupied by a mother bird and her babies. She is then taken into there family, and Stellaluna has to adapt to the lifestyle of the birds herself even though that is not who she is, or who she wants to be.
Evaluation: This a story has a great moral. It is a story that has a great plot, and it is filled with detailed pictures. The story itself is written very well, and the idea of a cute fruit bat is adorable. I remember personally reading this book when I was little, and I from that point on loved bats, I also remember the two additional pages in the end of actual facts of bats. I think that was a great addition to the book, and I think it is a great story to read. I highly recommend this book.
This is a fantastic picture book. The illustrations are so delicate and detailed. You can actually see through the skin of the wing.
