Her second children's book is the story of a pit bull, named after Peters' dog Stella. The character would rather be a pig ballerina, but she learns to accept herself. Titled "Stella is a Star", the book includes a CD with an original song written and performed by Peters and was released in April 2010 by Blue Apple Books. According to "Publishers Weekly", "Turning the pages to Peters' spirited narration, which is provided in an accompanying CD, makes for a more rewarding reading experience. The story and disc end with a sneakily affecting self-esteem anthem, which, like the familiar tale itself, is buoyed by the author's lovely vocals." Peters introduced the book at a reading and signing where she also sang part of the song, at the "Los Angeles Times" Festival of Books, Los Angeles, California, on April 24, 2010.
