What is Ada and the Galaxies about?

Ada loves spending summer with her grandparents on a Maine island, where she explores the shore, watches wildlife and waits eagerly for nightfall. Her favourite activity is stargazing, but thick fog threatens to hide the sky. With her grandfather’s help, Ada discovers that the universe can still be explored in surprising ways. Through their shared curiosity and affection, everyday island adventures connect with the vastness of galaxies, inviting readers to wonder about nature, space and the bonds between generations.
