Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Stellarphant is a multi-award winning book that celebrates persistence, diversity, and accessibility in STEM.

Stella is told she can't apply to be an astronaut because none of the space suits will fit her. So she makes her own. Stella is told she can't apply because she is too big for the training equipment. So Stella finds teachers and undertakes basic training independently. Stella is told she can't apply because none of the other astronauts will want to fly with her. So Stella finds her own crew.

By the time Space Command has run out of reasons why Stella can't apply, Stella realises she doesn't need Space Command after all. She has everything and everyone she needs already.
