A First Look At... Space Careers

The universe is full of wonders waiting to be explored!

In this delightful first look at space careers, young readers meet the astronauts, scientists, and engineers who help us reach the stars — and discover that their own curiosity could take them anywhere, even into orbit.

With playful rhymes, colorful illustrations, and a friendly character for every career, kids ages 3-6 will love meeting an Astronaut who floats among the stars, a Rocket Scientist who builds the biggest ships, an Astronomer who searches the night sky, a Mission Control Specialist who guides every launch, and five more space explorers.

Each spread includes an interactive prompt ("Can you pretend to float like an astronaut?") and a fun fact, making this the perfect read-aloud for curious little dreamers. A recap page, discussion questions, and a "draw yourself" activity round out the book — plus a heartfelt note for parents on nurturing career curiosity at any age.
