<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Astro, an asteroid that wants nothing more than for his personal outer space to be respected, is hit by a passing satellite and sent on what turns out to be a great adventure from the asteroid belt to Earth. Includes "space facts."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Asteroids! Planets! Astronauts!<br> In this charming debut picture book, a grumpy asteroid named Astro is thrown out of orbit and takes an unexpected journey through space!</b> <p/>Astro is a cranky asteroid who just wants everyone to respect his personal boundaries. But when a satellite knocks Astro out of orbit, he is forced to embark on an epic adventure through space...whether he wants to or not! <p/>Filled with playful illustrations and tons of cool facts about space, this picture book is a must-have for all the future astronauts who are ready to journey through the galaxy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A fun story for adventure seekers and space fans.--School Library Connection<br><br>Informative, dynamic, rich in vocabulary, and quite funny.--Kirkus Reviews<br><br>On the first read-through, some of the physics involved may be a bit complex for younger readers, although a spread of "Space Facts" at the end will help clear up lingering questions and perhaps pique the interest of would-be scientists. But this won't keep even the most science-averse young readers from enjoying the unamused Astro's voyage through the galaxy, or from demanding another read.--Booklist<br><br>"The precocious narration...coupled with Astro's arch speaking style...is great fun to read aloud, and fellow newcomer Woodard's Jetsons-esque style and bright palette bring just the right Space Age atmosphere to the story."--Publishers Weekly<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Matt Roeser has never been to outer space, but he has eaten astronaut ice cream.
