About this item

by Chloe Savage (Author), Chloe Savage (Illustrator)

"Savage's graceful ink-and-watercolor illustrations, with their delicate washes of color, are filled with enchanting details. . . .Clever, funny, and worth discussing." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Are we alone in the universe? Scientific exploration meets magical adventure in a third stunningly illustrated picture book from the creator of the celebrated The Search for the Giant Arctic Jellyfish.

Commander Julia and her team have one mission: to head into the vast unknown and answer the greatest question of our universe: Are we alone? But after visiting countless moons and planets of every size and color, they've found . . . absolutely nothing. For the sake of her crew, who have been crammed into a rocket ship for ten long years, Commander Julia makes the call: it's time to return home after checking one last planet. And it is on this seemingly desolated wasteland, just as their patience and hope have finally faded, that they find the answer they've been looking for--while facing new questions about who they are, what to do next, and what it means it have a home. Laced with humor and wisdom, this third gorgeously illustrated picture book from award-winning creator Chloe Savage blends scientific exploration with magical adventure, filling us with wonder, awe, and the potential for newfound joy every step of the way.
