***SIXTH-GRADE GUEST REVIEW BY DARLA***
This Place Has No Atmosphere
By Paula Danziger
The book “This Place Has No Atmosphere” is about a girl from the year 2057, where people live in malls and whose teachers are robots. But since her parents are amazing doctors and dentists, they got the opportunity of moving to the moon for five years to make it livable, and also get practice when they humanize Mars. Of course all of this is happening when Aurora starts high School, is in the most popular group, and is going out with the cutest boy in her grade. Right now she is in C.A.M.P., learning about the moon. Aurora doesn’t want to go, but her parents and younger sister, Starr, think that it’s a great opportunity.
I think this is a very interesting book, it is cool to imagine what it will be like in fifty years, and this is absolutely amazing. It is a little like when I moved from town to town, because I missed my friends a lot. I had gone to that school for four years, but eventually ZI got over it and made new friends. I think Aurora is a very interesting person, and her takes on things are different, since I guess it is future and she is older than me, but I still think she would be a cool person to know. Then her best friend, Juna, has half pink, half purple hair, with silver streaks and light bulbs that blink. Awesome!
I think once Aurora gets past the freeze dried hamburgers, she will start to enjoy living on the moon, I mean, what an experience! She will find a high-tech way to talk to her friends, and learn to love it, and then when five years is up, they will maybe agree to live there forever.
One question I have, is what do they drive? They said they got in the car, and I know it runs on little pellet thinks, but what does it look like? Second, Is there time travel? Just wondering, but with all that high-tech stuff, you’d think there would be, but they never mention it.
