A little unicorn. A big universe. An adventure beyond the bedroom stars.
Princess Sorbet dreams of exploring space, but she never expects her adventure to begin inside a closet! When a magical portal leads to a rocket called the USS Princess, the curious pink unicorn and her beloved friends embark on a journey far beyond anything they can see from home.
Joining Sorbet are Granita, Puffy, Sir Smooshy, Pixie, and Star. Together, this lovable crew discovers that the universe holds wonders well worth leaving the bedroom to explore. From a launch beneath the New Mexico night sky to the breathtaking sight of Earth from space, their adventure opens a whole new world of possibilities.
And their journey is only beginning. On the Moon, sparkling crystals invite a closer look. A comet's light draws them onward, and a distant nebula offers another glimpse of the beauty waiting among the stars. Each destination gives Sorbet and her companions something new to discover and something wonderful to share.
Blending unicorn magic with an introduction to the wonders of space, this illustrated early chapter book celebrates curiosity, imagination, friendship, and the joy of exploring together. Familiar childhood comforts become companions on an extraordinary voyage, giving young readers a welcoming way to imagine places far beyond their everyday world.
Gentle adventures and whimsical characters make this a cozy story for shared reading, while its eight chapters and epilogue offer natural stopping places for bedtime or independent reading. Watercolor-and-pencil illustrations bring Sorbet's world to life, from the comfort of her bedroom to the sparkling reaches of space.
For children who love unicorns, rockets, magical doorways, and adventures with friends, Princess Sorbet's journey offers a cheerful invitation to look up and wonder. Families can enjoy the story together, sharing the excitement of each new discovery and imagining where they would travel if a rocket were waiting just beyond their closet door.
Sometimes a grand adventure begins with a small question: What is out there?
Climb aboard the USS Princess with Sorbet and her friends. The universe is waiting!
