About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is stuck in a creative rut or needs a gentle nudge to see the magic in everyday play. It is the perfect choice for a quiet afternoon when the toy box feels uninspiring, or for a preschooler who is just beginning to understand that their mind is a gateway to adventure. Clara and Clem are two friends who start with a simple pile of blocks and end up among the stars. Through Ethan Long's minimalist illustrations and very accessible text, the story demonstrates how collaborative play and imagination can transform a bedroom into a galaxy. It celebrates the 'power of yes' in friendship: when one child suggests a robot, the other builds on that spark to create a spaceship. This is an ideal 'Level 1' reader for children aged 4 to 6 who are gaining confidence in their phonics while exploring big, cosmic themes.
