Lucy wants to build a rocket ship out of a box to go to the moon. The neighborhood kids don't seem to think it could happen, it's just a box, after all. Lucy is even more determined-she cleverly builds her rocket, physically trains for space, counts down till launch . . . and nothing happens.
But just when Lucy starts losing faith in her mission (it happens even to ambitious girls), something magical happens! Her rocket transforms and she finds herself in outer space on her way to the moon!
Inspired by accounts of real astronauts & the pure joy that is being up in space, Rocket Girl is sure to be a STEM favorite for aspiring astronauts!
