Tiny Little Rocket

32 pp. | Scholastic/Fickling | July, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-338-18949-0 $17.99
(4) K-3 Rhyming text (sometimes awkwardly) tells of a rocket that shoots into space once a year to deliver a "Happy Birthday World" banner. The immersive, retro-style illustrations use bright colors contrasted against dark expanses of outer space; a final gatefold depicts fireworks surrounding Earth on one side and the solar system on the flip side. An author's note contributes more information about the age of our planet.
