Introduction Hi, I'm Stella Batts and here is a list of seven things about me: 1. My name is Stella. (Oops, you knew that already.) 2. I'm eight years old. 3. I live in Somers, California, with my mom, my dad, my sister, Penny, and my baby brother, Marco. 4. My family owns a candy store called Batts Confections—we named it that because Batts

前言 嗨，我是斯特拉·巴茨，这里有7件关于我的小事：1. 我的名字叫斯特拉。 （哎呀，你们已经知道这个啦。）2. 我今年八岁啦。 3. 我住在加利福尼亚州萨默斯镇，和爸爸妈妈、姐姐佩妮，还有我的小弟弟马可住在一起。 4. 我家开了一家糖果店，名字叫“巴茨糖果屋”——我们起这个名字是因为巴茨

is our last name and confections is a fancy word for candy. 5. Of all the things they sell at Batts Confections, fudge is my very favorite. 6. Some of my other favorite things are dolphins, the TV show Superstar Sam, and the color purple, since that was the color of my dress at Aunt Laura's wedding. 7. Okay this is number seven—did you know that this is my SEVENTH book, and did you know seven is a lucky number? I don't know why. But it doesn't matter, because it's time to get on with the story.

是我们的姓氏，而“糖果屋”是糖果的好听说法哦。 5. 在巴茨糖果屋卖的所有东西里，软糖是我最最最喜欢的。 6. 我其他喜欢的东西还有海豚、《超级明星山姆》这个电视节目，还有紫色，因为劳拉阿姨婚礼上我穿的裙子就是这个颜色的。 7. 好啦，这就是第7件事——你们知道这是我的第7本书吗？还有哦，你们知道7是个幸运数字吗？ 我也不知道为啥它是幸运数字啦。 不过没关系，因为现在故事要正式开始啦。
