Bookroo's summary
Sadiq's father shares the tale of the Desert Star before leaving on a trip, sparking Sadiq's fascination with the cosmos. Inspired by a planetarium visit, Sadiq dreams of starting a space club. But can he rally his classmates to join him in exploring the stars? As he builds a simple telescope, Sadiq's determination grows. Will his passion be enough to unite others in his celestial quest?
From the publisher
Sadiq’s father is going on a business trip, but before he goes he tells Sadiq a story of the Desert Star, which fits in perfectly with Sadiq’s third grade class field trip to the planetarium, and inspires Sadiq to build a simple telescope to study the stars when his father returns.
