Children's β¦ Penny’s Take
Space Trip to the Stars
Gina Bellisario Β· 2026
66/100
π Skip It
Gina Bellisario and Mike Moran have a solid track record with early-reader space books, and the adventure-plus-science structure that works in their Cloverleaf series is likely at work here too. The problem is this title published in 2026 with essentially no critical record yet, so there is not enough evidence to confidently recommend it over established competitors. It may well be worth it β check back once reviews exist.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
