The Moon Is Up by Mariko Tamaki

4.0

The previous Lumberjanes novel by Mariko Tamaki ended on a cliff hanger scene... Jo glimpsed from the window of the Roanoke cabin a round glowing craft like a tiny moon descending in the forest and a small figure slipping out into the night. Shortly after, cheese begins to go missing from the Lumberjanes kitchens. But Jo has a lot of other things on her mind: the first annual Galaxy Wars- four days of space-themed contests and activities- is about to kick off in camp. And the Jo receives a letter, forwarded from home: an invitation to The Center for Scientific Advancement and Research's Summer Theory and Advanced Astronomical Research summer program. It's a dream offer except for one catch. She would have to leave the Lumberjanes behind.
