Astro-pige

We read it every night now—my four-year-old loves how Astrid’s space dreams feel so real, and the part where they act out her adventures always gets her giggling. The illustrations and story hit that sweet spot between imaginative and grounded, perfect for bedtime.

The way Astrid and her papa turn everyday moments into space adventures feels so true to childhood. My son asked to read it three times in a row, and we giggled at every role-play scene together.

My daughter squealed with delight when we reached the page where Astrid and her papa pretend to blast off—the imaginative play in this story is exactly what she needed after a long day. The illustrations really capture that dreamy night-sky feeling, and it's become our go-to bedtime read this week.
