Author

David MacPhail, Illustrated by Shane Tolentino, Prepared for publication by Collins Big Cat

In November 1980, 7-year-old David was on the edge of his seat watching TV footage of the Voyager probe arriving at Saturn. This was also around the same time he became interested in Star Wars. It was the beginning of a lifelong fascination with all things to do with space. As an author, he also loves storytelling, so this book allows him to combine those two interests in one.Shane Tolentino is a Filipino-American illustrator and former NASA intern at Johnson Space Center. She is the author-illustrator of You Are Going, a book for young readers about the Artemis missions, which has been translated into six languages. With a BFA in Illustration and a minor in Environmental Studies from Columbia College Chicago, Shane combines these two passions to tell stories about space, the natural world, and human resilience. She lives and works in Chicago.
