RICHMOND, Va., Feb. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Belle Isle Books of Richmond, Virginia, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of a new children's book, Astra the Lonely Airplane, written by Julie Whitney and illustrated by Michelle Simpson.
What's an airplane without a flight path? Grounded until she finds a buyer, Astra misses her daily flights with Captain Dan—but she still won't settle for just any owner. Fly along with Astra as she shows young readers how to soar without compromise.
Told in charming rhyming couplets and accompanied by vivid illustrations that accentuate the characters' personalities, Astra the Lonely Airplane is scheduled for release on March 2, 2022.
Astra is a sleek, shiny airplane who loves to go flying with her best friend, Captain Dan. But when Astra and Dan suddenly find themselves out of a job, Astra must wait in her lonely hangar for a new owner to come along and give them somewhere to go! As the weeks turn into months and the right buyer still doesn't appear, Astra begins to wonder: Will she ever get to fly again?
