Review: SOPHIE WASHINGTON: CODE ONE by Tonya Duncan Ellis

Girls aren’t smart enough for an app coding competition. We’ll see about that.


After winning the spelling bee, Sophie Washington signs up for a new competition: designing an app for computer gaming. So it’s for computer geeks. But girls can be geeks, too. Anything boys can do, girls can definitely do better.


I liked how this story revolved around girl power and that girls can be just as good as boys. It’s definitely an inspiration to all the young girls out there. It’s a good story and it’s easy to read, but it’s very invested in the high-tech world of computer gaming, which may relate to the younger generation; however, it may not interest all audiences.


My rating: 3 stars
