A Way to the Stars

Joe dreams of reaching the stars. While others laugh and call it impossible, he believes there must be a way. With the help of his dad—and a shared sense of wonder—Joe begins to build. Ladders stretch higher, towers rise skyward, and rockets take shape, all fueled by determination, curiosity, and love.

In this heartfelt picture book by Hans Christian Andersen Award winner David Almond, the bond between parent and child powers a journey beyond the ordinary. With vibrant illustrations by Gill Smith, A Way of the Stars celebrates big dreams, bold attempts, and the joy of imagining what lies just beyond our reach.
