Abstract
Convinced she is not like the rest of her boring family, nine-year-old Marnie McPhee decides it's time to leave Earth and take her place among the stars. But as she builds her spaceship, she realizes that maybe Earth isn't so bad after all, even if it is filled with imperfect human families. The Remarkable Flight of Marnie McPhee is a charming story of the infinite reaches of the imagination and the pleasure of dreaming.
