When Moon moves in her family's accessory dwelling, Christine meets a girl that is her polar opposite. Moon is bold, spontaneous and artistic, which is a stark contrast to Christine's own personality, despite their shared Chinese-American upbringing in the same suburb. An unexpected friendship blossoms between the two, which quickly evolves into a deep bond where they share intimate moments and dreams, including plans for the school talent show. Moon even confides in Christine about her visions of celestial beings who suggest her true home lies beyond Earth.
However, their seemingly idyllic friendship faces a sudden and unforeseen crisis. Christine, who has grown reliant on Moon's vibrant and supportive presence, is suddenly faced with the challenge of being the steadfast friend Moon now desperately needs when she is diagnosed with a brain tumor. Will Christine step up and provide the necessary support and strength for Moon during this difficult time?
Beautifully illustrated, Stargazing explores the true depth and resilience of a connection between friends. Both Christine and Moon are realistic characters who face growing pains and whose friendship evolves.
