The Rooftop Rocket Party

Reach for this book when your child starts asking questions that science cannot quite answer, or when their logic-focused world needs a dash of whimsical permission. It is the perfect choice for the young 'engineer' who also believes in magic, or the child who feels their vivid imagination is at odds with the 'real' facts they learn in school. Finn is a boy full of deep questions about the cosmos, but he finds himself constantly corrected by the literal-minded Dr. Gass. The story follows Finn as he attempts to reconcile the scientific explanations of a rocket scientist with an extraordinary invitation from the Man in the Moon. It celebrates the beautiful tension between the known and the unknown, proving that a child can respect gravity and still believe they can fly to a lunar party. This is a gentle, humorous exploration of intellectual independence and the validity of a child's internal world.
