After finally adjusting to life on a family farm with two brand new step-sisters, a young girl faces an even bigger challenge - figuring out where she fits in at her first year in middle school. This middle grade graphic novel explores family, friendship, and change!

In the second book of a bestselling graphic novel series that explores family, friendship, and change, a former city kid is finally adjusting to life on a farm with two brand-new stepsisters when she faces an even bigger challenge: middle school.

"Like [Raina] Telgemeier, [Lucy] Knisley has a knack for crystallizing coming-of-age anxieties and social dynamics."—The New York Times

Jen is just getting used to her life on Peapod Farm with her new stepsisters, Andy and Reese. But when the school year starts, there are even more changes in store for her.

Jen has to navigate new friends and new challenges—but at least she'll have Andy with her, right? As she starts sixth grade, she finds that her stepsister seems way more interested in crushes and boys than hanging out with her, while Jen wants to know when the world decided boys and girls couldn't be "just friends" anymore.

Praise for Apple Crush

Praise for Stepping Stones:
"Knisley's first middle grade graphic novel soars. She perceptively portrays the highs and lows of being a preteen, from the frustration of living with the fallout of adults' decisions to the joy of building new families. This candid, heartwarming look at a child grappling with major changes will resonate with fans of Raina Telgemeier and Svetlana Chmakova and anyone trying to find their place." --SLJ, starred review

"This realistic and relatable story of tween growth by an established adult comics artist is sure to be popular with fans of autobiographical cartoonists such as Raina Telgemeier." --The Horn Book, starred review

"Funny, sweet, and real, Stepping Stones reminds readers that, when families change and grow, taking those first steps together can be not just challenging but rewarding." --Jennifer & Matthew Holm, New York Times bestselling authors of Sunny Side Up & co-creators of the Babymouse series
