Join Aurora and her faithful dog, Sirius, as they gaze out the window at the vast night sky. Aurora isn't just watching the stars-she is studying them. When a shooting star streaks past, her scientific curiosity takes flight, and she blasts off in a homemade rocket on an adventure to find the North Star.
But space is big. When alarms start to beep and the rocket begins to shudder, Aurora's tummy flutters with anxiety. Guided by her goal and the comforting hugs of Sirius, Aurora must find the inner courage to overcome her fear.
This heartwarming picture book is a gentle story about overcoming fear, embracing curiosity, and the enduring friendship between a girl and her dog. Part of the Aurora's Cosmic Adventures series, this STEM-focused tale is the perfect bedtime story to inspire young people in science.
What makes this book truly unique?
It features an authentic fusion of art and science. Author Genevieve Ma'yet, a deep-space astrophotographer and naturalist, teams up with illustrator Bella Vitale-her former high school student turned fellow educator.
Together, they blend Bella's vibrant illustrations with Genevieve's captivating real-life astrophotography, bridging the gap between imagination and the real wonders of the universe.
