Emily Adams, Maddie Wilson, Bella Diaz, and Sam Sharma are eight-year-olds with one special thing in common: they love to create. They each have unique talents, too! Emily is great at constructing and building; Maddie has an eye for fashion, fabrics, and sewing; Bella is a gadget whiz; and Sam is a gifted artist. Together, these four crafty friends dream up new projects to design, build, and create and through their experiences, they'll learn how to handle various obstacles at school and in their everyday eight-year-old lives. Bella is a computer whiz and loves brainstorming new gadgets to make. So when she spies a flier for a citywide robotics competition, the young inventor's wheels start spinning. She can't wait to start building and programming! There's just one problem: all the kids on her school's robotics team are older. Bella must find a way to prove herself to the big kids. Now the competition is heating up -- both in the craft clubhouse and at school. Will Bella find the confidence to follow her dreams and conquer the competition?
