I think this is a good book as it gives you lots of inspiration to look up into space and see all of its wonderful beauty. It also encourage people to get off of the boring screens

I like this book because I liked Jamal, because he finally stopped looking at his phone because his little sister was sad!

I didn't know that meteors were as small as sand. I'd like to see a meteor shower.

I would recommend it to a friend or school because if the school was learning about space they could have it. I liked it when the big meteor shower came. Big brother always looked down at his phone because his eyes did not like the sun but then he looked up and made her a hot chocolate and looked up at the meteor shower. And she liked the meteor shower because she wanted to be an astronaut when she growed up.

I like this book because it’s about how a girl wants to achieve her dream and is willing to do whatever it takes to do so my fave route character is rocket because she’s very determined!

I think it was funny that even Rocket and her big brother looked down and the Rocket looked up. And I think it was funny even that they are brother and sister.
