Discover the incredible true story of how the world came together to build the International Space Station in this stunning picture book.
If you look up into the night sky, you may be lucky enough to see a bright light whizzing past. That’s the International Space Station! But what exactly is it, and how did it get up there? From how it was put together piece by piece in orbit, to what daily life is like onboard, find out how the world worked together to create a unique home for humans in space. An inspiring and fascinating non-fiction picture book, from the author-illustrator of the bestselling Curiosity: The Story of a Mars Rover, which was shortlisted for the Klaus Flugge Award and the Royal Society Young People’s Book Prize.
Markus Motum is a half-English, half-Norwegian illustrator. He studied Illustration at the University for the Creative Arts, graduating in 2012, and it was during his studies that he re-discovered his love of picture books. He really enjoys creating big colourful books and illustrations for readers to get sucked into. His debut picture book, Curiosity: The Story of a Mars Rover, was shortlisted for the Klaus Flugge Award and the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize.
