Review

This is a nice story about friendship and change. Cody is a young girl navigating friendships, school, and family. As in the past three Cody books, navigating change is the theme. Cody's friendships change, her interests change, as she joins a soccer team with her friends, and her best friend moves further away. This is a warm story that younger readers will enjoy reading.

Overall Book Score: good
