Young Reader – Middle Grade

PLANET MITCH – THE LOST STAR

 Third grader Mitchell Stargus can’t believe his eyes as he witnesses a falling star land in his back yard and transform into a girl his age. She calls herself Ursa after the constellation Ursa Major. Only nobody believes him. So now, Mitch is determined to prove Ursa exists, especially to his father(an astronomer).

Ursa, however, would just rather go home, back to the starry sky. There’s only one obstacle standing in both their ways—the dreaded black hole Alula.

With the help of some friends, Mitch and Ursa go to Whiteford City for a rocket launch. When the rocket ship starts to close up its hatch, Mitch must decide what’s more important—proving Ursa exists, or getting his new best friend home.

PLANET MITCH – THE LOST STAR is a completed 21,000 word manuscript for young readers ages 8-12 that explores the meaning of friendship and doing what is right.  Contact Susan for more information.

In the meantime, Mitch must learn to accept the help of others if he is ever to succeed.
