As eleven-year-old future film director Sophie LaCroix imagines herself and her friends as female versions of Indiana Jones, her therapist helps her work on her relationships with family members and with Jesus.

Sophie knows how it feels to be the new girl-different and "weird." She also remembers needing a friend. When a new girl in class is assigned to Sophie's drama group, she wants to get to know her. Sophie learns to accept her new friend's culture. But how will the other Corn Flakes teach others about acceptance if they cannot seem to learn themselves?

Is this the end of childhood? When a serious illness strikes one of the Flakes, the others can't daydream their way out of the shocking news. Instead they rally 'round and find that friends-and faith-show the way to a new adventure called growing up.

Sophie doesn't see why a rumor that isn't true should stop her from being Jimmy's friend-but when even the Corn Flakes start to believe the whispers, she is hurt to the core. Now it's an open question whether she and the rest of the Flakes can ever be friends again!
