What is Stella and Marigold about?

Seven-year-old Stella and her four-year-old sister Marigold turn ordinary days into extraordinary adventures. Stella is thoughtful and loves asking big questions, while Marigold tells wonderfully imaginative “fibs” and wears her favourite Halloween costume everywhere. Together, they face school, sickness, zoo trips and family life with plenty of curiosity, mischief and laughter. Along the way, magical bathrooms, dream lions, snow monkeys, howling wolves and even a lost vice president show how exciting the world can be when two sisters see it differently.
