Have you ever wondered why all movies about aliens are about the aliens wanting to destroy Earth...or at least us? What if that isn't the case at all? Maybe other races "out there" are much like us. Maybe if we can move past the fear and hatred of those who are different, we can learn a lot from each other. In this story, Karson Brooks has just completed seventh grade and is heading to Young Writer's Camp in Pennsylvania. A year before, Earth's inhabitants learned that they were not alone in the universe and that the Newcomers would be arriving because their planet was dying. Follow her adventures as Karson befriends Newcomers and begins a lifelong fight against hate and prejudice.
