## Description

Winner of the Newbery Medal—a brilliant journey through the stars, to the very heart of what makes us human.“Gripping in its twists and turns, and moving in its themes — truly a beautiful cuento.”—New York TimesHabía una vez . . . There lived a girl named Petra Peña, who wanted nothing more than to be a storyteller, like her abuelita. But Petra's world is ending. Earth has been destroyed by a comet, and only a few hundred scientists and their children — among them Petra and her family — have been chosen to journey to a new planet. They are the ones who must carry on the human race. Hundreds of years later, Petra wakes to this new planet — and the discovery that she is the only person who remembers Earth. A sinister Collective has taken over the ship during its journey, bent on erasing the sins of humanity's past. They have systematically purged the memories of all aboard — or purged them altogether.Petra alone now carries the stories of our past, and with them, any hope for our future. Can she make them live again?P R A I S E“Clever and compelling … wonderfully subversive.”—The Wall Street Journal? “This tale packs a wallop. Exquisite.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred) ? “Gripping, euphonious, and full of storytelling magic.”—Publishers Weekly (starred) ? “A strong, heroic character, fighting incredible odds to survive and protect others.”—School Library Journal (starred)A W A R D SWinner of the John Newbery Medal Winner of the Pura Belpré Award BEST OF THE YEARTIME - Wall Street Journal - Minneapolis Star Tribune's - Boston Globe - BookPage - Publishers Weekly - School Library Journal - Kirkus - Bank Street - Chicago Public Library - New York Public Library
