Bookroo's summary

Mia excels at basketball but struggles with change. When Amelia, a talented player and inventive mind, joins the game, Mia must decide if she's ready to embrace new ideas. As Amelia dazzles with her skills and inventions, Mia learns that stepping out of her comfort zone might be the key to growth. Will Mia open up to new experiences and welcome Amelia into the Sunshine Squad? Discover how friendship and innovation can transform a team and inspire everyday heroes to embrace the unknown.

From the publisher

Everyday heroes are always open to new experiences! The Sunshine Squad learns about trying new things. Mia is so good at basketball, but how about trying new things? Not so much. When a new girl, Amelia, shows up to play, Mia sticks with the team she knows–but it turns out that Amelia has a thing or two to teach Mia. Not only is Amelia a good basketball player, she also makes crazy-cool inventions! She’ll fit right in with the Sunshine Squad as their resident inventor. The back of the book includes info how children can be open to new ideas and new people.
