Janell Cannon's Stellaluna and Baby Names
Categories: In the News , Staff Picks , Children's Books
Grey’s Anatomy actress Ellen Pompeo recently gave birth to a daughter on September 15th, naming her Stella Luna Pompeo Ivery. Stellaluna just so happens to be an adorable children’s book by Jannell Cannon, about a fruit bat separated from her mother and adopted by a family of birds.
If the name Stella Luna doesn’t inspire the expectant parents, then the library has plenty of baby name books to consider, such as:
A is for Atticus: Baby Names from Great Books by Lorilee Craker
Baby Names Made Easy: The Complete Reverse Dictionary of Baby Names by Amanda Elizabeth Barden
Beyond Ava & Aiden: The Enlightened Guide to Naming Your Baby by Linda Rosenkrantz
Cool Names for Babies by Pamela Redmond Satran
The Name Book: Over 10,000 Names--Their Meanings, Origins, and Spiritual Significance by Dorothy Astoria
60,001+ Best Baby Names by Dianne Stafford
