Bookroo's summary

Lucy joins a school coding club, eager to create an app for someone special. But when she's grouped with unfamiliar classmates, her plans falter. Cryptic coding messages start appearing, challenging her skills and sparking unexpected friendships. Can Lucy decode the mystery and achieve her goal? Discover how coding and camaraderie intertwine in this engaging tale.

From the publisher

Loops, variables, input/output – Lucy can’t wait to get started with the new coding club at school. Finally, an after school activity that she’s really interested in. But Lucy’s excitement turns to disappointment when she’s put into a work group with girls she barely knows. All she wanted to do was make an app that she believes will help someone very special to her. Suddenly, Lucy begins to get cryptic coding messages and needs some help translating them. She soon discovers that coding – and friendship – takes time, dedication, and some laughs!
