It’s 1979 and the sky is falling. Skylab, that is. Somewhere high above Frankie Avery, one of the world’s first space stations is tumbling to Earth. And rushing back with it are old memories. Things twelve-year-old Frankie thought she’d forgotten. Things her mum won’t talk about, and which her little brother Newt never knew. Only ... did he?
Based on an international media event, this is a story that straddles the intersection between science and belief, between logic and magical thinking and to celebrate its recent release, the celestial people of Walker Books Australia are giving away two copies of this middle grade fiction masterpiece.
To enter, simply tell us in 25 words or less what is your favourite thing about space?
Email your answer along with your name and postal address to dimity. The two responses we like best will each win a copy of the book. Competition is open to anyone, worldwide, so long as they have an Australian postal address for delivery of the books. Please note, we cannot deliver to PO Boxes. Entries without a name and street address will be ineligible. Winners will be announced right here on our website on 15 April 2019.
Competition runs from 5 am 6 April 2019 to 5 pm 13 April 2019. Adults can enter for those aged 17 and under. This is a game of skill, not chance. The judge’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
