Description
A debut novel-in-verse about a neurodivergent seventh grader who dreams of traveling to the stars one day.
Seventh-grade Alex's favorite things to do are watching Youtube videos of rocket launches with his Papi and spending hours on the NASA website reading about astronauts and spacecraft. He even dreams of going to space one day himself, and knows he'll have to study hard in order to get there.
But Alex is in his grade's self contained classroom, which means the teachers treat him differently. He has to do the same dull worksheets every day, and he gets assigned to read books other kids read back in the third grade. Worst of all, it means nobody thinks he's ready to join Ms. Rosef's mainstream science class—the class Alex knows will be the first step on his path to NASA.
When his teacher says "Not yet," for the millionth time, Alex knows it's time for a different approach. Now he'll need to try everything he can to get the people in his life—his teachers, his parents, and the kids at school—to understand that he, Alex Ramirez, is capable of the extraordinary.
