Description
From the Bestselling Creators of Ivy + Bean comes a new full-color chapter book trilogy about two small sisters with very big imaginations.
There is the whole world, and in it, there is a city, and in that city, there's a house, and in that house, there are two half-houses, and in one of those half-houses, there lives a pair of sisters named Stella and Marigold.
Stella, who's seven, is kind, is a good storyteller, and ponders big questions like, what do animals think of people? Marigold, who's four, tells imaginative stories of her own (her mother calls them "fibs") and likes to wear her favorite Halloween costume year-round.
Stella and Marigold do all the regular things-like going to school, playing, getting sick sometimes, and sometimes going to the zoo-but even the most regular things have a secret side. There's something that happened with a blanket. And what about the wolves, a terrible storm, and two brave children (maybe one named Stella and one named Marigold)? Did those things really happen? Open this book and discover for yourself.

This is so cute! The same fun, authentic children's voices as Ivy & Bean for the younger set. Stella & Marigold are 2 young sisters growing up together. They often imagine fantastic worlds, and the book is fully illustrated.
Annie Barrows does a great job of capturing the chaotic, imaginative energy of little kids. I would highly recommend this to anyone with young readers!
Thanks to NetGalley, Annie Barrows, and Chronicle Books for the chance to review the advanced copy!

This new book by the author of the Ivy + Bean series is bound to be a classic. Two sisters with big imaginations tell stories and go on adventures while learning lessons about right and wrong. Chapters are the perfect length for reading one a night as bedtime stories. Sisters are very relatable and will be beloved by children. This would be the perfect gift to give a daughter when a new sibling is arriving. Or to give to two sisters. Or - really - for anyone with kids or grandkids!

This was an adorable story about two girls and their adventures. I loved the illustrations and my students will love the stories. This would be a good read aloud for younger grades or a good challenge for some higher readers. The story was entertaining and heartfelt.

Stella and Marigold are sisters with wonderful vivid imaginations. A series of short-short stories show their loving sibling relationship and the amazing stories and games they invent. Sophie Blackall beautiful art heightens Annie Barrows storytelling. Shout-out to the Betsy-Tacy book on the bedroom floor. A pure joy to read again and again.
Thank you to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this DRC.
