As if seventh grade isn't hard enough, Mars is also grappling with the recent death of their father and a realization they never got to share with him: they're nonbinary. But with their skates laced up and the ice under their feet, all of those struggles melt away. When Mars' triple toe loop draws the attention of a high school hot shot, he dares them to skate as a boy so the two can compete head-to-head. Unable to back down from a challenge, Mars accepts. But as competition draws near, the struggles of life off the rink start to complicate their performance in the rink, and Mars begins to second guess if there's a place for them on the ice at all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSkating on Mars\u003c\/i\u003e is a tender examination of grief and a hopeful middle grade tale of self-discovery. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"This timely, triumphant novel about figure skating, identity, loss, and love will move and entertain readers--and it might just inspire them to find their own ways to change the world. \" --Laurie Morrison, author of \u003ci\u003eUp for Air\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eComing Up Short\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Feiwel \u0026 Friends","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45355265654935,"sku":"9781250851871","price":956.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781250851871.webp?v=1767670677","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/skating-on-mars-9781250851871","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
