Cody and the Fountain of Happiness by Tricia Springstubb

4.0

It is the start of summer vacation and Cody is excited to have a week off before camp starts. Her father is a long distance trucker and her mother sells shoes at a department store, so Cody is at home with her teenage brother Wyatt. Her morning starts out full of potential when she meets Spencer who is looking for his grandmother's runaway cat. While Cody is a natural optimist, Spencer has a harder time seeing the good in things. Slowly Cody's exuberant nature helps Spencer come out of his shell. This sweet summer story is perfect for first and second graders who enjoy Clementine and Judy Moody.
