From Astronaut Abby, the dynamic founder of The Mars Generation, comes
a book about dreaming big, reaching for the stars, and making a plan
for success! From the age of four, Abigail Harrison knew she wanted to
go to space. At age eleven, she sat down and wrote out a plan--not
just for how to become an astronaut, but how to be the first astronaut
to set foot on Mars. With a degree in biology, internships at NASA,
and a national organization founded to help kids reach for the stars
themselves, Astronaut Abby is well on her way to achieving her
dreams--and she wants to help others do the same! In this book,
readers will find helpful advice and practical tips that can help set
them on the path toward finding, reaching for, and achieving their
goals. With examples from Abby's own life, interactive activities to
get readers going, and plenty of fun illustrations along the way, this
is the perfect guide for anyone--of any age--with big dreams and
plenty of determination. It's time to reach for the stars! Praise for
Dream Big!: "With friendly encouragement . . . the content and
approach are general enough to appeal both to STEM-oriented fans of
the author as well as those whose interests lie in other areas . . .
Fun and helpful." --Kirkus Reviews "Any young person who wants to
achieve their dreams will find this comprehensive book helpful."
--Booklist "The conversational style is easy to understand. . . .
There are eye-catching fonts, icons, think bubbles, and callouts. . .
. A recommended purchase for middle school and high school libraries.
Counselors assisting high schoolers with college preparation and
educators teaching leadership classes will find many of the journaling
activities very useful." --School Library Journal
