Description Illustration assignment. We were to re-illustrate an existing children's book cover and do an accompanying two-page spread.

This was the spread, and the book I chose was Stellaluna.

It's been a really long time since I put something here, wow.

"Hey, why are you hanging upside down?"

Stella: I'm not upside down…you three are.

"Ah, but you're a bat, and bats hang by their feet. You're hanging by your thumbs, so that makes you upside down. I'm a bat, and I'm hanging by my feet. That makes me right-side up."

Awesome picture. My brother has the book and the accompanying Stellaluna plush doll... so your picture reminded me of home.

I have a nostalgic connection to the book, too, so I'm glad it had the same effect. Thanks, Gerf!

I had a sneaky feeling this was Stellaluna just from the thumbnail. I believe I still have the book AND a plush Stellalaluna whom I used to hang from my ceiling. Fantastic re-illustration.
