A meteor has hit the moon, causing earthquakes, volcano eruptions and tsunamis all over Earth. Miranda and her family must prepare for the unknown, stockpiling food, wood and supplies. Many neighbors move away as dust clouds take over the skies and frost comes early destroying the hopes of growing food. Miranda's diary recounts how her family sticks together and bonds in close quarters, and how life as they knew it, is changed forever. Powerful book - well written. Good for middle school and up.
