Reach for this book when your child feels overshadowed by a sibling's unique talents or is struggling with the anxiety of a long distance relationship with a parent.

The story follows eleven year old Jack, who is caught between his duty to protect his genius little sister and his desperate desire to visit his father in America. While there are light science fiction elements, the heart of the story is firmly rooted in the messy, realistic emotions of family dynamics. It offers a normalizing look at sibling resentment and the pressure of being the responsible one. It is a fast paced, humorous, and relatable read for children ages eight to twelve who are navigating changes in their family structure.
