This graphic-novel adaptation of the classic nonfiction companion to “Midnight on the Moon” lets Jack and Annie guide readers through real-world facts about astronauts, rockets, planets, and the history of space exploration. Blending lively sequential art with clearly organized fact panels, the book answers the most common questions kids have about life in space—how astronauts train, what zero-gravity feels like, and where we might travel next—while retaining the humor and curiosity that define every Magic Tree House adventure.
