Simply Stevie A Graphic Novel FOC January 11, 2027

A girl with an overactive imagination who struggles to stay focused adapts to life at a new school in the first book of a hilarious middle grade graphic novel series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sara Shepard.Eight-year-old Stevie has what her parents call a racecar brain: she loves noticing new things around her, and often finds it difficult to focus. Stevie is a star at her small and quirky school, where learning is playing, there are no tests or homework, and she and her best friend Maggie win awards for their creativity and imagination. When her house floods and her family has to suddenly move, Stevie has to transfer to—gulp—a new school with less free time and way more rules. Some of the teachers even think Stevie is difficult because she gets distracted and can't seem to sit still. Stevie copes by talking with her wise inner voice, as well as her annoying older brother Nathan. When things go from bad to worse at the new school, can Stevie find a way to speak up for herself, and show everyone there's more than one right way to be?
