Goodnight Astronaut
For the child who imagines, this book is the foundation for the next adventure. For the child who dreams, this is the new aspiration. Goodnight astronaut is not only a fantastic book to read to your children before bed, it is the start of something for the child who yearns for their visions to become a reality.
NASA astronaut Scott Kelly creates a recipe of a book that will create and inspire the next generation of dreamers who make those dreams a reality.

This book also teaches your child the many different experiences that they would have as they pursue their dream of becoming an astronaut. There are so many life lessons in this book. The big dreams do not come over night and involve a lot of work and continued focus. Most of all, you have to keep on dreaming. Keep dreaming that you can do it, no matter how different the experiences are, or hard they can be at that time. Illustrator Izzy Burton captures the whimsical dream style of the child with the real experiences of Scott Kelly.
