IT'S LIKE WE TOUCHED THE MOON

Beth Hollar Gier

Historical Fiction

It's 1969, school's out, and 13-year-old, NASA-obsessed Grace is already uneasy about the long summer ahead. Her dad is in Vietnam, her mom is distracted by the news, and all her best friend wants to do is hang out at Lake Michigan with the popular kids. When Grace finds out that the local space camp has been designated "boys only," she is devastated. The one thing she thought might save her summer in the end―meeting an actual NASA scientist and hearing him speak―now seems out of reach. But Grace gets busy, engineering a plan that shows everyone Grace can do anything she sets her mind to.
