Lunar

Chris Bradford

Luna loves living on the moon. She enjoys helping her father--a Moon Miner--on his search for precious minerals and rocks.
But when a devastating meteor strike destroys their base, Luna is left stranded alone on the moon. With no shelter and few supplies, she must find a way to survive.
The problem is--any hope of rescue is at least three days and 250,000 miles away . . . and her oxygen is running out fast!
