Stella, Queen of the Snow

by Marie Louise Gay

Stella, Queen of the Snow Cover

Staff Pick

It's young Sam's first snowfall, and he has plenty of questions. Luckily for him, his big sister Stella has a seemingly endless supply of imaginative answers. For instance, when Sam wonders what has happened to the pond near their house, Stella explains that it's frozen "like a giant silver popsicle." And you know how your breath turns into fog when it's cold out? Well, according to Stella, that's because your words freeze and "every word has a different fog shape." With her quirky outlook and boundless imagination, Stella offers young readers a fun and unconventional take on winter.

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In their second adventure, Stella and her little brother, Sam, spend the day discovering the wonders of winter together. Playing in the snow, they explore the white-draped forest, pelt each other with snowballs, and wave their arms while lying down in the snow to make snow angels. Marie-Louise Gay's evocative watercolors bring alive the magic of a winter day, as Sam asks a million questions and Stella patiently answers them in a big sister kind of way.
