Pros: Beautiful illustrations, descriptive story telling with a great moral Cons: A bit pricey for the nice hard cover edition
My daughter’s library includes well over 300 books. I’ve been buying children’s books long before I ever had children. My family knows my passion (obsession?) for reading and have heartily contributed as well. With that large of a selection and a...
Pros: A classic story so beautifully illustrated. Cons: Absolutely none
In 1993 Harcourt published a book by Janell Cannon that has in the years to follow become a modern-day children's classic. Stellaluna is the touching story of a baby bat (Stellaluna) being trained by her mother to hunt food at night when they are ...
Pros: wonderful illustrations, gentle story Cons: birds are the same color as Stellaluna, making differentiation harder
Ever since the day when I visited my great-aunt's house as a toddler and witnessed a bat frantically flapping from a little-used room when she opened the door, I've had a fascination for the maligned nocturnal creatures. So I couldn't help but be drawn ...
Pros: Beautifully written and illustrated, a very sweet story. Cons: None!
Last week I had the pleasure of reading "Stellaluna", the charming little story of a baby fruit bat, to a group of second graders. They were enthralled with the story, and it seemed as though they could not wait for me to turn each page so they could ...
Pros: Beautiful story, well illustrated, great message, well told Cons: none
As a substitute teacher, I get to explore the reading libraries of many classrooms. Every so often, I find a classroom with books that I have never read before. Since all school's in my district have 20 minutes of SSR (sustained silent reading) every...
Pros: Beautifully illustrated tale with a subtle but important message Cons: None!
So you can’t judge a book by its cover, right? Foiled again. I didn’t pay much attention to Stellaluna only because it features a fruit bat in exquisite detail on the front cover. My mother, the English teacher, highly recommended it but I...

Janell Cannon - Stellaluna: A Pop-Up Book and Mobile is a favorite of Osage County First Grade and of Mrs M. I have long be fascinated with pop up books, and have yet to find a child who is not as enthralled as am I. I have and use many in my ...

Pros: Teaches that we can be different and alike and best friends, all at one time Cons: none
I was surprised when my daughter wanted this book. It's about bats. We live in the woods where we see many bats on a summer night, we've even had one in the house, so I just wouldn't expect her to want this. But she did and she really enjoyed it.

Stellaluna is one of my son's favorite books. We had checked it out from the library and after reading it, he simply had to have it. I had only skimmed through the book that day we visited the library, but had never sat down to read the entire thing....
Pros: A beautiful book with a beautiful story. Cons: None that I can see.
Let me state first before starting this opinion the importance of bats. Without bats the world would become over run with insects and the deadly diseases that they carry. Bats eat up to three times their body weight in insects per day. Mostly this diet...
Pros: gorgeous pictures, wonderful story Cons: none
The first thing that drew me to this book was the fact that it was about a bat...and I just love bats!! They're so adorable! Although I'm sure many of you will disagree with me on that, don't let that deter you from getting this book. It's absolutely...
Pros: Gorgeous, rich illustrations, and the words just feel good when I read them aloud Cons: None
My mother, who is an English major, suggested that I buy Stellaluna. And buy it soon. While browsing in a small, intensely silent bookstore in Blowing Rock, NC, I noticed it. I bought it immediately. And I now publicly thank my mom for the...
"Stellaluna" is such a pretty book that children will notice it immediately. The illustrations are some of the most beautiful that I have ever seen, and, once the kids are hooked, they will enjoy the lovely story that accompanies the...
