About This Book
This charming second book in the Stella & Marigold series, from the acclaimed creators of Ivy + Bean, follows two imaginative sisters as they navigate the ups and downs of friendship and sisterhood. When a new "friends list" book makes them realize they need more pals, Stella and Marigold concoct a variety of hilarious and sometimes magical schemes, from crafting mermaid candleholders to attempting to make snow. The story beautifully portrays a warm, loving sibling relationship, making it perfect for parents seeking positive depictions of sisterhood. With colorful illustrations and plenty of humor, it's an ideal early chapter book for newly independent readers aged 6-9, and a delightful read-aloud for younger children aged 4-5.
