Bernadette was introduced by Lauren Dylan herself. Bernadette briefly spoke about the book, the idea for which came to her on an air plane, and introduced the illustrator Liz Murphy, before doing some signings will waiting for a school group of first graders to arrive by subway - as she said, "They are like their own reality show."
When the children arrived, they excitedly sat at Bernadette's feet while she read Stella is a Star
Stella is a Star is based on Bernadette's adopted Pit Bull. Stella disguises her true identity - pit bull - because she is afraid that people will not accept her. She triumphs in her dance recital and learns that you must be who you are. It's a lovely, sweet story perfect for small children and especially young girls, as in the book Stella is a ballerina.
Fans of Kramer, the star of Bernadette's first book Broadway Barks
Accompanying both books is a CD featuring Bernadette reading the story as well as performing the lovely song. My book loving nieces Camilla and Cara will each get a copy of Stella is a Star to go with their copies of Broadway Barks.

That's such a cute little book! I love animals.
What was her answer to the "do you have a collaborator" question? And is she wearing the dress from that movie she just made? ;)
Her collaborator is Liz Murphy, the illustrator. I have no idea about the dress.
Thanks for the post! The scene sounds adorable. I love hearing new Bernadette Peters news.
