Seasons Change

A Heartfelt Adventure for Kids Ages 10-12 Navigating Friendship, Family, and Big Life Changes

The seasons are changing-and so is Ava's life. Back from the magic of Camp Sweetwater, Ava feels stuck between two worlds. Her parents are getting divorced, and now she has to juggle two homes, two routines, and two different versions of herself. Everything feels out of place-except for Buddy, her new rescue dog, who may have more in common with her than she ever expected.

As Ava wrestles with her changing family and uncertain future, she finds comfort in her newest passion: cooking. The little kitchen on her mom's houseboat becomes a place where she feels grounded, creative, and confident. Whether she's experimenting with new recipes, mastering knife skills, or learning about her family's culture, Ava discovers that food has a way of bringing people together.

But outside the kitchen, things aren't so simple. Managing her diabetes during volleyball games is tough-but with help from a new coach who has superpowers of her own, Ava learns to embrace everything that makes her unique.

Perfect for fans of Real Friends, Fish in a Tree, and Roll with It, Season's Change is a heartfelt middle grade story about divorce, friendship, identity, and the healing power of dogs, good food, and true connection.
