Astro Girl
Publisher: Otter-Barry Books
Astrid loves space and she wants to be an astronaut!
She has lots of fun with her Papa finding out what it takes to become one: from doing experiments and eating dried food, to getting used to near-zero gravity.
Astrid thinks she’s ready to be an astronaut, but will she get to meet her personal hero and real-life astronaut soon?
A delightful and educational picture book for young readers interested in space travel. The illustrations are colourful and simple, with large-print text, diverse characters and heartfelt father-daughter interactions.
