Product Description
Knocked from her mother’s safe embrace by an attacking owl, Stellaluna lands headfirst in a bird’s nest. This adorable baby fruit bat’s world is literally turned upside down when she is adopted by the occupants of the nest and adapts to their peculiar bird habits. Two pages of notes at the end of the story provide factual information about bats. “Delightful and informative but never didactic; a splendid debut.”--Kirkus Reviews
Amazon.com Review
The charming baby fruit bat in Janell Cannon's heartwarming, award- winning Stellaluna is now a finger puppet--excellent for shadow play, but also for highly effective flapping action! Fold her cloth wings around her brown felt body and hang her upside down for a brief bat snooze, if you like, or use her to reenact crucial scenes in the book. Perched on the finger of reader or listener, this endearing 4-inch-tall puppet with a 9-inch wingspan will inspire flights of fancy as Stellaluna's award-winning story unfolds. Each bat puppet comes in a gift package with the hardcover edition of Stellaluna. A wonderful introduction to Stellaluna, and a must for bat lovers. (Ages 4 and older)
