A uplifting and touching story about curiosity and caring that is perfect for sharing.
Stella is a great detective. She can’t help noticing everything around her – clouds shaped like horses, wheelie bins with faces, a lonely glove on a fence, people that look like their dogs and even a man with a furry hat that looks like a cat on his head. Stella tells Dad about everything she’s seen but Dad is worried that she’s going to hurt people’s feelings.
But when Stella spots a sad lady in the park she knows that speaking up is just the right thing to do.
