As if seventh grade isn't hard enough, Mars is also grappling with the recent death of their father and a realization they never got to share with him: they're nonbinary. But with their skates laced up and the ice under their feet, all of those struggles melt away. When Mars' triple toe loop draws the attention of a high school hot shot, he dares them to skate as a boy so the two can compete head-to-head. Unable to back down from a challenge, Mars accepts. But as competition draws near, the struggles of life off the rink start to complicate their performance in the rink, and Mars begins to second guess if there's a place for them on the ice at all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSkating on Mars\u003c\/i\u003e is a tender examination of grief and a hopeful middle grade tale of self-discovery. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"This timely, triumphant novel about figure skating, identity, loss, and love will move and entertain readers--and it might just inspire them to find their own ways to change the world. \" --Laurie Morrison, author of \u003ci\u003eUp for Air\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eComing Up Short\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caroline Huntoon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250851874\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250851871\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Feiwel \u0026amp; Friends\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e522224 \/ Skating on Mars\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/03\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2023 pg. 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2023 pg. 69","brand":"Caroline Huntoon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44069428429055,"sku":"9781250851871","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e4409d41-f2dc-4161-9aa7-228f0e4d41ac.jpg?v=1685424661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/skating-on-mars-caroline-huntoon-9781250851871","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
