"The hardest tests in middle school aren’t in math or English, but friendship. When Christine becomes best friends with an outspoken new girl, she’s unprepared for Moon’s secret – that she has celestial visions and feels she doesn’t belong on Earth. There’s plenty of outrageous fun, painful arguments and misunderstandings, but when Moon is hospitalized and fighting for her life, Christine is afraid she has failed her. Jen Wang’s graphic novel will tug at your heart, while the humor and insight offer a universe of possibilities. This story of friendship gets an A+. (For ages 8 to 12)"
