Synopsis

In this third effervescent book in the Stella picture book series, Stella and Roger imagine all the incredible grown-up things they can do when they’re older!

Stella can’t wait to turn seven! She and her best friend, Roger, agree seven-year-olds get to have much more fun. But the more grown-up you are, the more you can do, so maybe Stella will skip seven altogether and go straight to eight years old! Anything’s better than being six. Being seven or eight is being practically a grown-up, like Stella’s neighbor Eva.

Eva does all kinds of thing Stella can’t yet—real grown-up things like eating vegetables…getting a job… Maybe Stella didn’t think this all the way through.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Clothilde Ewing started her work life as a lifeguard, but she has spent most of her career telling people’s stories as a journalist (CBS News), television producer (The Oprah Winfrey Show), and communications professional. She loves using the written word to honor a child’s imagination and is on a mission to help adults tap into the wonder they felt as children. She was inspired to start writing after reading a New York Times opinion piece by her now-editor, Denene Millner, titled: “Black Kids Don’t Want to Read About Harriet Tubman All the Time.” Her goal is for people to see more children of color in books that are not defined primarily by race or struggle but rather by belonging and joy. A native of Cleveland, she lives in Chicago with her husband and two highly energetic children.

Lynn Gaines has been making art for years and is still in love it! Born and raised in Ohio, she currently works for American Greetings but also enjoys making art for children’s books and kids-related products. She works both digitally and traditionally, often combining the two. She hasn’t met a craft she doesn’t love—sewing is one of her favorite hobbies. She looks for inspiration everywhere and often finds it in bookstores and thrift stores, looking in vintage children’s books and animation, and even in a garden or two. In her spare time, she is a bit of an illustration nerd and loves to roller skate, read, and toy with writing. Lynn lives in Northeast Ohio with her husband, Mel, and two fur-kids and studio mates, Charlie and Harry.
