REVIEWS
Kirkus Reviews: “Tender tribute to McAuliffe & . . . . beautifully portrays the timeless teen quest for identity.”
Publishers Weekly: “Moss’s depiction of the effect of the shuttle’s destruction on Annie hits hard.”
VOYA: ” Will resonate with teens who are struggling with self-discovery & those all-important decisions about their future.”
School Library Journal: “Paints a lovely portrait of a smart, strong, friendly McAuliffe. In fact, the author’s background as a NASA engineer makes all of the scenes based at Johnson or Kennedy Space Center grounded and intriguing. Moss’s descriptive language is almost poetic.”
