Cody's fourth adventure has her dealing with life's changes. Her friendship with Pearl is changing, especially now that she's playing soccer and "in" with the "in crowd", and she's not sure why her friend Spencer is acting so weird. His mom is having a baby, and he's become more quiet and withdrawn. Cody joins the soccer team, to try and stay close with Pearl, but the resident mean girl doesn't make things easy. She's determined to stay upbeat and try to roll with the changes, but when so much is changing all at once, it's really hard. Readers will understand and empathize with Cody and how hard it is when everything seems to hit at once: friendships shift, seasons change, and families expand. There are black and white illustrations throughout and the upbeat tone of the book should help kids as they deal with their own transitions.
