From the publisher

Stella Batts is in third-grade, she wants to be a writer, and her parents own a candy shop. Life should be sweet, right? In Pardon Me, Stella needs to find a new best friend after her friend, Willa, moves away. But finding a new best friend is not easy. Things are looking up when she meets Evie, the new girl in town. She is going to be in Stella’s class at school and she needs a new best friend too. Stella can’t wait to introduce her to the other third graders. Except when they get to school, things don’t exactly go the way Stella planned. This best-selling early chapter book series charmingly chronicles the ups and downs of a girl’s school and family life with warmth and humor.
