Julia Finely Mosca’s The Astronaut with a Song for the Stars shares the story of Dr. Ellen Ochoa’s journey to becoming a female astronaut of color. This book can serve as a multifaceted mentor text that exemplifies ABAB rhyme, unique text features (including artistic use of capitalization and punctuation), and a biographical style of writing. Additionally, it serves as an inspirational story for children about women of color in science and the power of perseverance and dedication.
