A Fellow Traveler invites readers onto a twilight porch in 1957, where fear and wonder swirl like stars in the sky above.
This tender, poetic tale follows Merlin-a World War II veteran weighed down by Cold War anxiety-and his ever-hopeful wife, Dorothy. When a glimmering light streaks across the night sky, the couple begins a heartfelt conversation about the past, the future, and the unknowns between. Through rich rhymed verse and luminous illustrations, the story captures a pivotal moment in history through the quiet bravery of everyday people.
Told across 9 beautifully illustrated spreads, A Fellow Traveler introduces young readers to the dawn of the space race while exploring timeless themes of hope, perspective, and resilience.
At the end of the book, you'll find the original one-act scene that inspired it all-an award-winning piece written by author Davis Cornelison, honored with Best in Show and Judges' Choice at the Florida State Junior Thespians competition.
Both nostalgic and inspiring, this book is perfect for sparking meaningful conversations about history, imagination, and how love can light even the darkest skies.
