Librarian’s Note: The English language edition of the copy I picked up in France last year is finally out. I like the French title, “Destination the Stars” better than “Star Castaways”. So fresh it’s not yet up at the publisher’s website.

Librarian’s Note: A very sentimental story so far, as Asumi struggles in her studies at the Tokyo Space Academy. One of my favorite pages so far:

Librarian’s Note: Lonnie always lamented that no one ever seemed to pay attention to the story she wrote to connect the 100 chapters of the original “Kids to Space“, so for this third tome in the series (after the Educator Guide) the story is extracted and presented as a more coherent whole, although with one question from each topic extracted as well to help keep it educational. Usual disclosure - your Lunar Librarian co-wrote the Moon chapter of “Kids to Space”.

Librarian’s Note: Some fresh space manga for young American audiences. Young Asumi applies to the Tokyo Space School, and is accompanied by a lion-headed spirit that helps guide her through the trials of life. The protagonist is 13 years old, so I can easily envision readers as young as 9 or 10 enjoying this one.
