See You in the Cosmos by Jack Cheng
4.0

This book is told through a series of podcasts that the main character, eleven year old Alex, is recording on his gold iPod. Alex plans to send his iPod into space using his handmade rocket that he is launching at SHARF, the Southwest High-Altitude Rocket Festival. The book follows Alex on his road trip to SHARF and then onto Las Vegas and LA, we join Alex as he meets new friends and searches for answers to important questions.
The narration from Alex is wonderful and while it’s unusual for me to read a book narrated by an eleven year old boy this is so well done, that I soon found myself reading in the voice of Alex. Or at least in the way that I thought Alex would sound. There really is something quite wonderful about looking at the world through Alex’s eyes. I’m so pleased that I picked up a copy of this book at work. It was a lovely, easy read that captured my imagination.
