The World Ends in April

Every day in middle school can feel like the end of the world.\r\n\r\nEleanor Dross knows a thing or two about the end of the world, thanks to a survivalist grandfather who stockpiles freeze-dried food and supplies--just in case. So when she reads about a Harvard scientists prediction that an asteroid will strike Earth in April, Eleanor knows her family will be prepared. Her classmates? Theyre on their own!\r\n\r\nEleanor has just one friend she wants to keep safe: Mack. Theyve been best friends since kindergarten, even though hes more of a smiley emoji and shes more of an eye-roll emoji. Theyll survive the end of the world together . . . if Mack doesnt go away to a special school for the blind.\r\n\r\nBut its hard to keep quiet about a life-destroying asteroid--especially at a crowded lunch table--and soon Eleanor is the president of the (secret) End of the World Club. It turns out that prepping for TEOTWAWKI (the End of the World as We Know It) is actually kind of fun. But you cant really prepare for everything life drops on you. And one way or another, Eleanors world is about to change.
