Syretia and the Curiosity rover / by Ailynn Collins ; illustrated by Paula Zorite.
Having just moved to California, Syretia's mother enrolls her and her younger brother, Sean, in the only summer camp available: Mars or Bust, which is focusing on the Mars Curiosity rover due to land soon; Sean is thrilled by all things involving space, but eleven-year-old rock enthusiast Syretia is not really interested, until she discovers that the rover will be studying Martian geology--as Syretia's team works on their end-of-camp project, and the hour for the Mars landing approaches, she finds herself caught up in the excitement and anticipation.

Summary
Syretia and the Curiosity Rover
Soon after moving to California, Syretia's mom enrolls her and her brother, Sean, in a Mars or Bust summer camp. Stung by the recent move--and unimpressed by the camp's focus on the upcoming landing of the Mars Curiosity Rover--Syretia can't bring herself to care. Until, that is, she discovers that she has more in common with the Mars rover and its mission than she could ever imagine. Can Curiosity's landing a world away open Syretia's heart and mind to her new life here on Earth?
