Tiger In The Sky is
about teens yanked from today to battle aliens 300 years in the
future.
It is Book 2 of a series called "Out of
Time".
Tiger
In The Sky takes place on a space station
at the edge of the solar system. But if you want a look at the real
space
station that we're building right now, check out: http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/
The
tiger in the book's title is a smilodon californicus .
You
can learn more about this animal at the website of the George
C Page Museum at the La Brea Tarpits in Los Angeles,
California.
A
good way to experience being an astronaut is to go to Space Camp
(great for adults too!) Visit the web site: www.spacecamp.com (or
you could phone for a free brochure: 1-800-637-7223)
