## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful story, wonderfully illustrated and hugely inspirational
        
*by M***R on 13 January 2017*

This is a beautiful book... other reviewers have mentioned that there is the possibility to scare your children with some of the alien references. My four year old daughter is terrified of the dark and the shadows and has an incredibly overactive imagination so I approached this one carefully. When we came to the page in question I didn't draw any more attention to the creatures than I had to but she was so absorbed in the story that she barely batted an eyelid. The story follows Chris as a child in the run up to witnessing the 1969 moon landings and his childhood dreams enacted out in his own imagination as a child.It is a truly beautiful, inspiring story that left me with a tear in my eye and a warm fuzzy feeling of determination that I must do whatever I can to ensure that my own children will also reach for the stars.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiring book. Inspiring author.
        
*by A***R on 4 April 2017*

A beautifully illustrated book, with an inspiring message. What more could you ask? We were lucky enough to meet Chris Hadfield and have our book signed. He has a winning way with children, and my four year old daughter was enthralled. His message to children, and to adults, is wonderfully positive, and worth discovering for yourself.I bought a second copy from Amazon to present to my daughter's nursery on World Book Day, to help inspire all her friends to great things.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful book
        
*by M***J on 16 October 2016*

This is a wonderful and inspirational book. To be honest I bought it because I saw Chris Hadfield giving an interview and he was so interesting and honest about the book I thought I'd buy it for my baby granddaughter.  I'm really glad I did as it's a superb example of a great book for a child. It also addresses the issue of "the dark" in a very positive way.
