“Fast-paced and full of wonder, this is a powerful, gripping must-read.”—Kirkus (starred review)
“A lush and mysterious fable, full of beauty, full of wonder.”—Rebecca Stead, Newbery Medal–winning author of When You Reach Me
"With a grandfather obsessed with survivalist prepping, Eleanor can’t help but spin out of control when she reads a Harvard scientist’s prediction that a giant asteroid is careening towards the earth, resulting in TEOTWAWKI (the End of the World As We Know It) in April. Eleanor of course shares the news with her best friend Mack, who can’t keep a secret, and soon their classmates band together in a secret “End of the World” Club to learn how to prepare for and survive a disaster. As Eleanor’s circle of friends grows, she learns friendship comes in all forms and that despite our best intentions we can’t always predict the future. Stacy McAnulty delivers another tightly paced, emotion-filled middle grade novel perfect for prompting conversations about friendship, science, and discovering the truth." --Beth, Bookstore Manager
