Broadway Barks Reminder: Bernadette Peters' new children’s book "Stella Is A Star!" is now available for pre-order on Amazon.com! Proceeds from sales of the book go toward helping animal shelters and adoption agencies. Pre-order your copy today!

Broadway Barks came about as a result of Bernadette Peters' and Mary Tyler Moore's passion for animals.

Product Description

Bernadette Peters and Liz Murphy the terrific team behind the New York Times best-selling Broadway Barks are back with a story about Stella, a pup who would rather be a graceful pig ballerina than what she really is: a dog no one seems to like.

Bernadette Peters' lovable Stella learns the lessons of self-acceptance, following her heart's desires and, most important, that it's okay just to be herself. The book includes a CD with an original song written and performed by Bernadette Peters.
