Annie Barrows, Nina LaCour, Meggie Ramm

The only thing better than an awesome story? An awesome story with pictures, perfect for early readers and middle graders! Follow along with Stella & Marigold as they explore secrets involving blankets, a terrible storm, and two brave children in Annie Barrows’ bright new series about a pair of sisters adventuring through their imaginary worlds. Nine-year-old Ella from Nina LaCour’s Ella Josephine: Resident in Charge also knows what it’s like to have secrets in her perfect apartment house on Poppy Hill, which is inhabited by residents who are as much family as they are neighbors. The beloved Batcat graphic novel series returns to cook up something special in Batcat: Cooking Contest by Meggie Ramm, a story celebrating food, friends, found family, and festivities. Author Lisa Moore Ramée and Laila of Cinnamongirl Inc. will moderate the joyful discussion between these authors, whose stories help us figure out the world and our place in it—and who we want by our side.
