From the creator of the New York Times-bestselling Ivy + Bean comes a fun and funny new series about two small sisters with very big imaginations.

This charming and critically acclaimed early chapter book series follows the everyday adventures of siblings Stella and Marigold. In this second book, Stella and Marigold receive a purple present—a book for them to list all their friends. That’s when they discover they need to make more friends!

But how? With magical recipes to make snow fall? With lots of nice Band-Aids? How about a mermaid candleholder? The two sisters are full of ideas and plans. Maybe they turn out, or maybe they don’t, but one thing is for sure: By the end of this book, listeners will be the best of friends with Stella and Marigold.

CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED: Book 1 in the series, a USA Today and National Indie bestseller, shined with critics, receiving four starred reviews!

BELOVED CHILDREN’S BOOK CREATORS: Annie Barrows is the author of The Magic Half and bestselling The Best of Iggy series.

STRONG RELATIONSHIP: Parents looking for a positive depiction of the ups and downs of sisterhood will love this series, but it will also resonate with fans of more general friendship duos. The series has the same familiar settings and family relationships as Ivy + Bean, with just a sprinkle of magic.

Perfect for:

• Independent listeners age 6-9

• Parents, teachers, and librarians seeking entertaining elementary school chapter books

• Gift-givers looking for an early readers series for kids who enjoy stories full of humor and heart

• Fans who love such bestselling book series as Ivy + Bean, Junie B. Jones, Beezus and Ramona, Dory Fantasmagory, and Princess in Black
