The Changes Between US

The Changes Between US is a heartwarming middle-grade story about friendship, change, and the power of kindness.

Sophia and her best friends-Felicia, Emma, Mina, and Olivia-have been inseparable since elementary school. They call themselves the Wednesday Wondergirls, proudly wearing something purple each week to celebrate their bond. But when junior high begins, everything feels different: new schedules, new clubs, and new people slowly pull the group in separate directions.

Sophia finds herself at a crossroads-longing for the comfort of her old group while discovering the excitement of new friends. With Eloise, Miya, and Amina, she learns that friendships don't have to disappear; they can grow, stretch, and make room for more laughter and love.

This gentle, relatable story is perfect for readers ages 7-12 who are navigating the ups and downs of changing friendships. Filled with warmth, humor, and the glow of purple Wednesdays, it's a reminder that even when things change, the bonds we treasure always stay with us.
