Book excerpt: Written by Milena (Sellers) Philips with Deborah Dorn, and illustrated by Katie Johnson, Always Fly Away is written in rhyming verse and tells the story from the perspective of a young bird named Stella. She leaves home to meet a friend by the creek, and there she is greeted by a kind looking cat. The cat seems gentle and asks for Stella's help, but Stella remembers the advice her mother gives her every time she goes out, "Stay alert, keep your distance, and when you don't know what to do, always fly away!" Should Stella trust someone she's never met before, even if the cat seems nice? Will Stella follow her mother's instructions and return safely home?Always Fly Away teaches children important lessons about who a stranger is--it does not matter what they look like, a stranger is someone a parent or guardian has not introduced to you. Not only does the story teach child safety through the example of a lovable protagonist, but it also contains questions and instructions at the end of the book to review with the child reading it.
