About The Author

SCOTT KELLY is a NASA astronaut best known for spending a record-breaking year in space. He is a former US Navy fighter pilot, test pilot, and veteran of four spaceflights. Kelly commanded the space shuttle Endeavour in 2007 and twice commanded the International Space Station. He lives in Houston, Texas. You can follow him on Facebook at NASA Astronaut Scott Kelly, and on Instagram and Twitter at @StationCDRKelly. Visit him at scottkelly.com.Izzy Burton is a BAFTA-nominated director in animation who spends her time dreaming up stories and creating art for them–in both films and books. Her favorite movies are Interstellar and (most of) the Star Wars saga, so it's been her absolute dream to illustrate a book about space with a real spaceman! (Yes, she's still excited.) Visit her at izzyburton.co.uk.

"Kelly tells in quite lyrical language of his and brother’s childhoods and journeys to space…Burton’s digital illustrations add magic and wonder to the text.  A thoughtful meditation, for avid fans of space exploration and newbies alike." –School Library Journal, starred review “A captivating tale guaranteed to keep youngsters wide awake in wonder.” -Kirkus Reviews
