The best book ever read ON PLANET EARTH

Annie Barrows and Sophie Blackall did a wonderful job with the Ivy and Bean series and Stella and Marigold is nothing short of that. I love that each chapter told a different story!!!! I give it 5 stars!!!!

This was rough to read. I was excited to read it but then I struggled. This character was so whiney it became annoying at times. He just went on and on and on. I feel it just went on for so long. I did a lot of skimming for a large portion of the book. I will say I enjoyed the ending, it was good, but my goodness it took a looooong time to get to that point - which it did not need to. One review said read the last 40 pages as it’s all you need to know, that’s true. I also had a friend reading (audio book) this at the same time (random) and she felt the same way! We enjoyed our misery together :) If you read it, enjoy and maybe you will have a different perspective.

Not one of my favorites of her. I thought there was too much info dumping about popular restaurants and stores in Nantucket and not enough focus on the plot. I did not like many of the characters in the story either especially Leslee and Bull.

Could not put it down! Loved it all the way to the end and kept me on my toes the entire time (and beyond!)

Frog and Toad get so confused. It is very funny

In this post-pandemic world, raising a resilient, active and engaged elementary schooler can be a little tough. The helpful paragraphs and short, easy-to-understand suggestions are reassuring and giving the reader guidelines to follow.

This book was very interesting. It held my interest the whole time. I’d rate it higher if it hadn’t been predictable. That said, I’d recommend this book. I learned a lot.

I thought the book was funny because the family thought of silly names.

This was the best book! I wanted to keep reading it and was sad it was over. My favorite part was probably when Daisys friend wished to be a grown up, at the wishing well, and she turned into a grown up but she learned she didn’t like being a grown up and she turned small again at the end of the book. She wanted to be a kid. Matilda - age 7
