Hedgie Blasts Off!


Bibliographic Information: Brett, J. (2006). Hedgie Blasts Off!. New York, New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons.
Brief Annotation: Hedgie works at the Star Lab as clean-up crew. But when The Big Sparkler stops working correctly, Hedgie is the only one small enough to do the job. Finally, Hedgie gets his dream of being an astronaut! This book also has a fold out page with a great illustration.
Genre: Animal Fiction
Grade Level: 1-3
Readers who will like this: Readers who like space, astronauts, and rocket ships. Also readers who like solving problems.
Rating (1-4)/ Response: 3. This is another cute Hedgie book by Jan Brett. I liked the fact it has to do with space, although only somewhat realistic, it will really be intriguing for those who have an interest in space and space exploration.
One question you would ask before a read aloud: Have you ever wanted to be an astronaut? Have you ever been the perfect person for a job you thought you'd never get to try?
