Martin's Secret Dream

By Ralph Carle

Martin, a young mouse with a secret dream of going to space, spends the last day of summer gazing at the stars. His dream seems impossible until he meets Toby, a new student who lives next to a human space laboratory. Martin dedicates himself to training for space travel, learning about astronaut preparation, and devising creative ways to simulate space conditions. With help from Toby and a little bit of luck, Martin hopes to make his dream come true.

A charming, humorous, and inspiring tale, Martin's Secret Dream celebrates imagination, friendship, perseverance, and the belief that no dream is too big, no matter your size. Perfect for young readers and families who love stories about space, adventure, and brave little heroes.
