Juniper Jones and the Rocket She Built

Juniper Jones is building a rocket to another planet. She's just not sure which one. Pregnant with an astronaut's child, Juniper finds herself torn between her little sister and best friend on earth and the possibility of a future far from home. Set in a world recovering from the ravages of climate change, Juniper Jones and the Rocket She Built explores the tensions between motherhood and sisterhood, the families we're born with, and the families we choose.
