What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Lauren Sánchez, Emmy Award-winning journalist, pilot, and philanthropist, takes readers on a high-flying space adventure with Flynn the Fly in her picture book debut. Includes a glow-in-dark poster for your wall inside the jacket–and a special glow-in-the-dark page to find inside the book! “. . . a beautiful reminder to embrace risks for the sake of discovery.” –Kim Kardashian Bold and inquisitive, Flynn is a little fly with big dreams. Fascinated by the stars, Flynn daydreams of becoming an astronaut. School is hard, but especially when there’s an attention-grabbing rocket company just down the road. One day, while exploring, Flynn flies aboard a rocket ship that suddenly takes off! Follow Flynn on an exciting journey to space to learn more about our precious planet–from amazing natural wonders, like the rainforest, to the atmosphere that protects it all. After all, big dreams and a curious mind can lead to the most astonishing discoveries! With a book jacket that doubles as a glow-in-the-dark poster and an interior page that also glows, this engaging picture book features exquisitely detailed illustrations by Clio-award winner, Raleigh Stewart, and introduces important STEAM concepts. Encouraging exploration and conservation, Sánchez–and Flynn–will have little readers reaching for the stars.
