Sixth-grader Emmy tries to find her place in a new school and to figure out how she can create her own kind of music using a computer.

"Hannah Malfa-Adler is Jew . . . ish. Not that she really thinks about it. She'd prefer to focus on her favorite pastime: baking delicious food! But when her best friend has a beyond-awesome Bat Mitzvah, Hannah starts to feel a little envious ...Despite her parents firm no, Hannah knows that if she can learn enough about her own faith, she can convince her friends that the party is still in motion"--Provided by publisher.

Twelve-year-old Emmy feels out of place in her new school. She takes a computer coding class and instantly connects to the material as well as to a new friend, Abigail--a talented singer who secretly wishes to be a coder--and Emmy feels she's finally starting to find her footing. Then she finds out that the teacher who so inspired her is gravely ill and her new-found stability seems to be at risk. Told through prose, verse, and Java code.
