Daddy Bruce on Picture Books
So, the book ‘Stellaluna,’ was a big deal in my house growing up. If you haven’t read it, it’s a picture book about a baby bat (named Stellaluna) who gets separated from her mother and is trying to find her. Stellaluna stays with a bird family for a while before realizing she doesn’t belong with them. She eventually reunites with her Mother, and it’s the sweetest thing. Now imagine Bruce reading that book to his young kids, especially Damian. Imagine?? All the parallels???With the bird family being the League and Bruce being the mother bat????
Bruce: “See? Stellaluna found her family!”
Little Damian: “What if she gets lost again? Will she find them again?”
Bruce: “Of course! Bats always take care of their babies, no matter what.”
Or-
Little Damian: “The birds taught Stellaluna to eat bugs! That’s not what fruit bats do.”
Bruce: “You’re right, the birds have different rules.”
Damian: “Do…do you think her mother is mad at Stellaluna for following those rules?”
Bruce: “Not at all! Her mom loves her, no matter what. And see? Now Stellaluna eats fruit, so it’s all better.”
