Betsy Gordon is living a great adventure. She just doesn't believe it. It's 1965 and ten-year-old Betsy is reluctant about her family's move to Florida. Her favorite stories are about pioneers. And pioneers certainly don't live under palm trees, sport pixie haircuts, or have fathers who work at the Kennedy Space Center. Or do they? Very soon, Betsy is making new friends and becoming excited about space flight, which begins -- almost -- in her own backyard. But just as she discovers her own special talent, Betsy makes an embarrassing mistake. Ashamed and upset, she becomes a target for the class bully. With the help of a special friend -- herself a pioneer of sorts -- and an encounter with a real-life astronaut, Betsy regains her confidence and recognizes that she, too, is living the life of a different kind of pioneer. Set against the backdrop of the Space Race, Moon Trail is the growing-up story of a young girl who is an eyewitness to a remarkable period of American history.
