Space Girl: An Astronaut's Dream Takes Flight by Suzanne Buzby Hersey

From her own nest,
Jessica marvels
at the night sky
and wonders:

Could a sparrow like
me ever fly all the
way to the moon?

Exquisitely written and extraordinarily illustrated, Space Girl brings us on Jessica’s journey from her childhood dream of space travel to becoming an astronaut who performs the first all-woman spacewalk!

Inspired by watching a young sparrow learn to fly in her Maine backyard, Jessica decides she, too, will spread her wings. Just like the sparrow, she falters along the way, but she never gives up on her goal.
