Team BFF: Race to the Finish!

(3) 4-6 Girls Who Code series. Adapted by Christa Roberts. These first two novels rise above the series' explicit, potentially heavy-handed goals of female empowerment, inclusivity, and representation, telling interesting stories with appealing characters. Friendship introduces coding and espouses collaboration and communication as Lucy and her new coding club friends solve coded clues with real-life applications; Race finds club member Sophia using problem-solving in their robotics competition and her family life. Review covers these Girls Who Code titles: The Friendship Code and Team BFF: Race to the Finish!
