A Glimpse Inside Stella By Starlight: The Reading Spotlight for the
2021 Summer Enrichment Reading Initiative
“As the story unfolds, the reader gets a glimpse of a time and place where historical facts are embedded in this fictional tale, which takes place in Bumblebee, North Carolina. In this segregated town, in 1932, the Klan surfaces after being dormant for years. Stella and her little brother, Jojo, witnessed something that would forever change them and the people in the small community where they live. The story is based on the life of the author’s own grandmother.” -Marjorie C. McIver, Summer Enrichment Reading Initiative Organizer
