Reach for this story when your teen is grappling with the weight of responsibility or needs to see a model of fierce, protective courage in the face of overwhelming odds. While framed as a high stakes science fiction adventure, the heart of the narrative explores how a survivor finds the strength to return to the source of her trauma to protect another. Parents will appreciate the focus on Ripley's resilience and her burgeoning maternal bond with Newt, an orphaned survivor.
