The Last Cuentista: Newbery Medal Winner

Petra Peña dreams of becoming a storyteller like her grandmother. But her world is ending—Earth has been destroyed by a comet, and only a few hundred scientists and their children, including Petra's family, have been selected to travel to a new planet to continue the human race. Hundreds of years later, Petra awakens on this new world with a startling discovery: she is the only person who remembers Earth. A sinister Collective has taken control of the ship during its journey, intent on erasing humanity's past. They have systematically removed the memories of everyone aboard—or eliminated them entirely. Petra alone now holds the stories of Earth's history, and with them, any possibility for humanity's future. She must find a way to bring these stories back to life.
