Join Andrew on a magical stargazing adventure that celebrates imagination, courage, and the unique strengths within every child.
Up Where the Stars Are earned an Excellence in Children’s and Young Adult Science Fiction Award from the American Library Association.
Andrew Moore doesn’t walk, run, or talk like other children, but that has never stopped him from dreaming big. He loves to smile and laugh—and go on the most wonderful outings! During a night of stargazing, his imagination carries him into the stars, where he meets the princess Andromeda. When a fearsome sea monster captures her, Andrew joins Pegasus, the legendary flying horse, on a daring rescue through the constellations. Andrew isn’t as fast as Pisces, as powerful as Aries, or as brave as Perseus—but he discovers that he doesn’t need to be the strongest, fastest, or bravest hero to make a difference.
Up Where the Stars Are is an uplifting picture book by award-winning author Ryan Jacobson and award-winning illustrator Michelle Hazelwood Hyde that celebrates courage, kindness, and the power of seeing the world through a child’s imagination.
