 Bella – With Feodora and Gino, children learn that beauty comes from within

 When young children begin to consciously perceive themselves and others, an important question arises: What makes me special? What makes me beautiful?

 “Bella” is a heartwarming story about a little butterfly girl who finds out just that – and learns that true beauty has nothing to do with glittering wings.
 After a mishap, Bella suddenly doubts herself. Her colors are smudged, her shine is gone—and with it, her self-confidence. But Feodora and Gino, the two empathetic dinosaur children, show her what really matters: friendship, humor—and the ability to lovingly accept herself.

 This picture book accompanies children ages 2 and up on a gentle journey to inner strength. It encourages them to love themselves – even when things go wrong.

 That’s why “Bella” is more than just a picture book:
 – Strengthens self-confidence and self-acceptance
 – Promotes emotional development and empathy
 – Stimulates conversations about appearances, perfection and inner value
 – Ideal for sensitive children who are easily unsettled
 – With loving, colorful illustrations
