Written by Mary Tellefson

ABOUT THE BOOK

A bunny friend blinded by a tractor = sad

A rescue that flops = sad

A mad best friend = sad

A tossed friendship bracelet = sad

A bummer sleepover = sad

A baby bunny caught in brambles can’t breathe = panic!

Now Stella’s horse, Charlie-Choo, must race a surprise hero to the rescue.

Join Stella’s adventure as she uses equations to solve problems and learns the answer to the most important equation of all:

Stella + ? = Happy
