CODY AND THE MYSTERIES OF THE UNIVERSE Cody, Book 2

This is the second book in an appealing series, but those who missed the first one, CODY AND THE FOUNTAIN OF HAPPINESS, can still enjoy the adventure. Narrator Natalie Ross gives Cody an assured, eager voice as she looks forward to helping her best friend, Spencer, become acclimated after moving into the neighborhood. Realistically, Spencer's voice starts out meek as he worries about finding his way in a new school and making new friends and then grows in confidence as he finds his own place and value in the neighborhood. Diverse characters with unique voices, smart dialogue, and realistic situations that kids handle with humor and fairness make this series a winner. N.E.M.
