"We Dream of Space" by Erin Entrada Kelly follows the story of three siblings, Fitch, Cash, and Bette, living in Wilmington, Delaware, during the historic launch of the Space Shuttle Challenger in 1986. Each sibling grapples with their personal struggles and dreams. Fitch feels overshadowed by his peers, Cash is trying to find his identity, and Bette dreams of being an astronaut. As the launch date approaches, their lives intertwine in meaningful ways, highlighting themes of family, resilience, and the power of dreams against the backdrop of a significant event in history.
