After her family moves to Peapod Farm with two brand new step-sisters, a young girl faces an even bigger challenge - figuring out where she fits in at her first year in middle school. This middle grade graphic novel explores family, friendship, and change! In Jen's story, she finds that her stepsister, Andy, seems way more interested in crushes and boys than hanging out with her, while Jen wants to know when the world decided boys and girls couldn't be 'just friends' anymore. As she starts the sixth grade, she learns that her stepsister is obsessed with a boy named Apple, who is just pretending to be a boy because she's scared of the truth. The story continues in the standout sequel to Stepping Stones that captures everything awesome (and scary) about growing up.
