From the time when young Neil Armstrong took his first small steps and
spoke his first words, he wanted to travel into space. Although everyone
told him it was impossible, he never gave up. Tom Saunders' song tells
the story of Armstrong's life, concluding with the day he made that
world-changing "giant leap." In this book, Saunders' poetic, inspiring
lyrics are brought to life by the illustrations of award-winning Cynthia
Nugent. A CD of the song is also included.

Better Nate Than Ever
A small-town boy hops a bus to New York City to crash an audition for E.T.: The Musical.
Nate Foster has big dreams. His whole life, he’s wanted to star in a Broadway show. (Heck, he’d settle for seeing a Broadway show.) But how is Nate supposed to make his dreams come true when he’s stuck in Jankburg, Pennsylvania, where no one (except his best pal Libby) appreciates a good show tune? With Libby’s help, Nate plans a daring overnight escape to New York. There’s an open casting call for E.T.: The Musical, and Nate knows this could be the difference between small-town blues and big-time stardom.
Tim Federle writes a warm and witty debut that's full of broken curfews, second chances, and the adventure of growing up—because sometimes you have to get four hundred miles from your backyard to finally feel at home.

The Fellowship for Alien Detection
Haley and Dodger don't have much in common.
Haley lives in Greenhaven, Connecticut; Dodger lives in Port Salmon,
Washington. Haley has a family who loves and supports her; Dodger can't
seem to ever get his dad's approval. Haley is well adjusted and
passionate; Dodger hears strange voices in his head. But they both want
something: a new map, a path away from home—or, perhaps, a path toward
it.
Of course, this was all before they heard about the missing people, the untraceable radio signals, the unexplained phenomena. Before they both became the first recipients of a summer research grant from a certain mysterious foundation. Before they discovered that their fledgling theories about extraterrestrial life were all too accurate.
Now Haley and Dodger are the only ones who can figure out what is happening in towns across America, who can give voice to the people whispering "alien abduction." At the very least, they're both going to have the most eventful summer vacations of anyone they know.
