The show follows the adventures of Stella, a curious and playful four-year-old girl, and her younger brother Sam as they explore the world around them. The show is based on a book series by Marie-Louise Gay and follows the same whimsical and imaginative spirit of the original stories. Each episode of the show is structured around a simple storyline, with Stella and Sam encountering new experiences and learning valuable lessons along the way.

The animation style of Stella and Sam is colorful, playful, and very reminiscent of the original book illustrations. The characters are all soft and rounded, with large expressive eyes that convey a wide range of emotions. The backgrounds are often simple and abstract, allowing the attention to be focused on the characters and their actions.

Each episode is centered around a simple concept, like discovering the wonders of the ocean or exploring the night sky. Stella and Sam are both naturally curious and excited about learning new things, and the show presents these discoveries in a way that is both educational and entertaining.

Another key aspect of the show is the sibling dynamic between Stella and Sam.
