Publisher's Synopsis

An enchanting and heart-warming story that will make you want to reach for stars.

Joe wants to find a way to the stars. With the help of his dad, he builds a ladder, a tower, even a rocket to go up, up, up… Oh no! Crash, bang, wallop! What next?

Together, the pair jump on pogo sticks and build sheds to paint their dreams and find a way. An uplifting and magical tale of sky-high courage, imagination and the bond between father and son that will make your heart soar. Written by internationally acclaimed author David Almond and brought to glorious life by award-winning illustrator Gill Smith in their first collaboration.

"For a soaring story of the loving bond between parent and child, A Way to the Stars… is sheer delight." The Guardian

"Gently funny, emotionally warm, this magical story is a reminder of how important the bond between parent and child can be." Daily Mail
