Aurora's parents are overjoyed to have been invi ted to inhabit a colony on the moon, but like any teen, Aurora is devastate d by the thought of leaving her boyfriend and a school where she feels impo rtant.

At the low point of her depression, she suggests to 16-year-old Hal that they produce a play an d involve all the kids in the tiny moon colony. Eventually Aurora's parents become more involved with her, she finds she actually likes little kids, a nd she listens when a teacher tells her that we are "not always the center, " but rather a "part of the Universe." This is a good family story with cha racters that have believable faults. Danziger has a keen ear for teenage jo kes and chatter; puns, some witty and some corny, punctuate the realistic d ialogue. Aurora's story suggests to middle school readers that the teens of 2057 will suffer the same bittersweet emotions as those of today, and that caring friends, a loving family, and a sense of humor are important anywhe re.
