"Girls who play sports and the coaches and families who support them will thoroughly enjoy this warm, uplifting story." -Christine Brennan, Best-Selling Author of "On Her Game: Caitlin Clark and the Revolution in Women's Sports."

"A fine YA novel about perseverance in sports and in life." -KIRKUS REVIEWS

When a fiery car crash kills her older brother, Maggie Steele is trapped. Grieving and shattered, she is left to grind the gears of a giant grain truck on her family's Kansas farm, staring at a future that feels as flat and empty as the plains around her. To escape her nightmare, she discovers a daring path forward: the pole vault.

It's a sport of defiance, of launching your body skyward to battle the crushing pull of gravity-and for Maggie, it's her only hope. But as she fights to master the dangerous discipline, she faces small-town ridicule, Title IX roadblocks, and the haunting voice of her own self-doubt.

The crossbar is raised higher and higher, a fragile boundary between the girl she is and the person she could become. With everything on the line, can she find the courage to silence the haters, trust her instincts, and finally soar?
