Description
Perfect for fans of The Babysitters Club and anyone interested in computer science, this series is published in partnership with the organization Girls Who Code!
Maya and her friends from coding club have an exciting new project: they're coding lights and music for the winter dance! But when Maya's old troublemaking friend Maddie moves to town, Maya starts spending a lot of time with her, and less time with her coding friends. Maddie just gets her in a way that her other friends don't.
Will Maya get swayed by Maddie's wayward ways, or will she stay true to her "permanent group" from coding club? And will she come through on her part for the light and music coding project? Maybe coding—like friendship—is about being there for your friends when they need you the most.

        January 15, 2018
        The coding club girls prepare a technological treat for the school dance while fashionista Maya deals with friendship and bad influences.Over the summer, Chinese-American Maya got in big trouble hanging out with the neighbors' visiting niece, shoplifter Nicole: Maya attempted to steal a bottle of nail polish and crashed into the display, getting busted and losing her mother's trust. When Nicole permanently moves to the neighborhood and starts in at Maya's school, she's quick to apologize, repent, and seek to renew friendship with Maya. In spite of her mother's misgivings, Maya gives Nicole another chance. But certain signs (some legitimate, some overblown) point to Nicole as trouble, and Maya's limited time is at a premium. Nicole competes for it against the coding club and its newest project. Their task is to use code to creatively, artistically enhance the upcoming school dance, and they choose to program lights to respond to music. The troubleshooting and trial-and-error elements of the code storyline effectively demonstrate how and what can be done with code, and they are far more believable than the forced, frequently unsatisfying social storylines. The latter include some dance drama involving Latina Sophia, African-American Lucy, and white Erin that is easily resolved--Pakistani-American Leila is spared it altogether. Given Maya's careful delineation of club members' races, her failure to identify Nicole jars.Despite the strong technology plot, the poor execution in the friendship storylines undermines the moral of the story. (Fiction. 8-12)

        The third book in the Girls Who Code series stars fashion-loving coder Maya and centers on a project to code the lights and music for the school dance. More than teaching coding, this episode focuses on the challenges of collaboration as bad-apple Nicole undermines the coding club's supportive friendships. The novel balances its messaging agenda with an enjoyable story line.
