Review
I enjoyed reading this story about a teenage astronaut! The opening alone was a great hook that instantly pulled me into Lawrence’s endearing, fascinating, inspiring, and imaginative tale. Love his quirky character as well as the people around him who support his dream. The author well depicted a seemingly impossible journey of a teenage boy with autism in this beautiful narrative. It’s a great manifestation that anything is possible even to someone whose reality is unlike most of us. I’m definitely giving this book 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommended it to readers who are into science fiction.
