We're all made of star dust. Of atoms that once were stars and planets and moons. The beautiful and the banal: coexisting through a complex chemical bond. Tillie loves knowing the underlying scientific structure of the world. But could science be a way of gaining her mother's love? Can a project with irradiated marigold seeds at the school science fair show her mother that Tillie is more than just half a test-tube?
