After finally adjusting to life on a family 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!Jen is just getting used to her life on Peapod Farm with her new stepsisters, Andy and Reese. But when the school year starts, there are even more changes in store for her. Jen has to navigate new friends and new challenges--but at least she'll have Andy with her, right? As she starts the sixth grade, she finds that her stepsister 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. Jen's story continues in the standout sequel to Stepping Stones that captures everything awesome (and scary) about growing up.

"I received an eARC courtesy of Random House Graphics via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.<br/><br/>I had to reread the description of this because nowhere does it say that this is a small sample of the book which was devastating because I was really looking forward to it. That aside, this will definitely live up to the expectations of book 1. The illustrations are just as charming as ever and it will be great to see some familiar faces again (and meet some new ones).<br/><br/>Edited to add: Finally read the whole book. Just as cute as I expected.<br/><br/>For Libraries: If 'Stepping Stones' is as beloved in your libraries as it is in mine, this is a must buy."
