Astronaut Academy: Zero Gravity: Zero Gravity by Dave Roman

4.0

A super cute little book about the students at Astronaut Academy. The art is adorable, and I really enjoyed the unique characters. This book felt less like a novel and more like a series of connected short stories, as we got to know the different characters. I love how the characters' lives intertwine with one another, and I love the straightforward, almost blunt, way that most of the characters speak. It feels true to the way kids are, for the most part: without artifice, saying what they think, often times misunderstand or misconstruing a situation. I'm looking forward to the next volume, as we see what happens to our heroes (because yes, you can still be a hero even if you are just an ordinary space student!) on break.

BTW, I briefly met Dave Roman at Comic Con a few years ago, which is when I bought this book and he signed it for me. We only exchanged a few words, but he seemed super nice, and was very pleasant, despite being at a crowded con, signing books at day.
