Ella has her best idea yet for a fun day. They will visit a nebula for each member of the family! Up first is Bernard 68, picked for Maggie. But it is very dark and frightens Tilly. The Calabash nebula is next. Ella picked it for Dad because it’s shaped like his tow truck. Then comes the Hand of God nebula for Mom. It has a powerful pulsar they need to stay clear of. Then comes the Carina nebula, picked for Ella. Just like her, it’s interstellar! When Dad’s truck breaks down, they head to the Boomerang nebula. 

The year is 3021. The place is the Milky Way, where eight-year-old Ella gleefully heads out with her friends on exciting adventures of discovery. At only eight, she already knows quite a bit about space... but there is always more to explore!
