‘The Cosmic Adventures of Astrid and Stella’ by Sabrina Moyle with illustrations by Eunice Moyle is a graphic novel for young readers about best friends in space.

Astrid and Stella go on an adventure to the planets Caturn and Bloop. Along the way, they meet new friends and stop an evil tyrant. They also solve some problems and use catchy and helpful phrases like ‘We can do hard things!”

This is a fun and positive story about friendship, getting things done and having fun. The art is great and there are three stories in this volume.

I'm obviously not the intended reader for this but my kids love these types of books so I had to check it out. So this is mostly going to be about the things they liked about it and not so much about me. It has everything young kids enjoy animals, adventure, bright colors, teamwork and funny jokes. All 3 of my kids enjoyed this, the youngest one the most but the older two did too (Their ratings were 5, 5, and 3). It was definitely cute. Perfect for fans of Blue, Barry, and Pancakes, Catwad, Norma & Belly, Bird & Squirrel and Agent Moose.

Hilarious! Fun of adventures and lots of amazing art! I love the humor and the characters and most importantly SPACE!

These bright pop off the page illustrations will stand out for kids. Perfect for fans of the Narwhal graphic novels,

Another silly little graphic novel with an unlikely duo. A unicorn and a flying squirrel embark on a space adventure with their trusty robot companion. An easy and quick graphic novel read for early readers.

This colorful little graphic novel is about a unicorn and a flying squirrel trying to get to outer space, except that they keep getting interrupted by dance parties. It's kind of funny in a very short attention span kind of way and it seemed to want to be sure it was getting boys to read it by adding some farting and butt licking, because it's a lot of pink and sparkly. It also seemed like the central plot of the book was solved in chapter two without too much fanfare so chapter three felt like it was just an afterthought.

Astrid and Stella go on many adventures in the universe. Each adventure take place at a new locations and during their adventures, Astrid and Stella make new friends and experience many new things with their reliable robot friend, Bobo. The shenanigans Astrid, Stella and their new friend get into make for a very comically journey though the cosmos.

I love the Moyle sisters. There picture books and board books are OUT OF THIS WORLD! I was very excited to receive this copy of their children's graphic novel and... it left me wanting more, sadly. The illustrations and color palette were on point and very Moyle sisters. That was not what was lacking for me. The story was bleh for me and left something to be desired in the way of a plot. I understand this is for a younger audience, I do. I have and do, however, enjoy other children's graphic novels and there is usually more meat to the plot and story than was presented here. I understand new independent readers need light and airy reads, but that does not mean they need to lack in substance, which is the case with The Cosmic Adventures of Astrid and Stella. If each chapter could have been developed into a series, there would have been more to beef up each mini-adventure and turn it into a full adventure as well as making it an easy series and adding the substance that readers need to develop into stronger and more cognizant readers.

Was it cute? Yes. Were the pictures on point? YES! Is this a book I will recommend our library to purchase? Probably, some kiddos need fluff reads to become and develop into stronger readers. Was a I hoping to give this 5 stars? Yes. Will I? No.

What an absolute winner of a book! Hilarious. Full of adventure. Fun characters and kingdoms. Perfect for fans of the Dogman, Catkid or Captain Underpants series. This full colour comic book style is accessible for early readers as young as 7 or 8 years. Astrid and Stella are brilliant together - a new dynamic duo. Who doesn't love a magical unicorn or an intergalactic flying squirrel?! This duo love nothing more than snack attacks and dancing and with the help of their robot Bobo, they fly around in their FriendShip to aid PlaNuts in need like Caturn. Very witty puns galore make this a comical and enjoyable read for mum and child! Publication 20th September 2022 with book 2 available foe preorder for March 2023. Both books in my pre-orders by demand of the little people in my house! #thecosmicadventuresofastridandstella #netgalley #sabrinamoyle #eunicemoyle

A cute illustrated book that would make a great read for younger audiences interested in graphic novels but not quite ready for longer or more complex GNs yet.

This is an enjoyable graphic novel, perfect for the early reader with a mix of humor, magic, adventure, and friendship as we follow our heroes through dance parties and rocket travels. The illustrations are brightly colored, bringing more of the "fun" element to life for students. It will be popular with the elementary school crowd -- and why not? Unicorns, rainbows, and silly puns! What's not to love?

Space adventures? Yes. Unicorn? DOUBLE yes. Best friend on board? TRIPLE YES.
Absolutely adorable read. What a perfect easy read for a younger audience. It's fun, cute, silly and full or adventure and friendship.
Each page is bright, colorful, and delivers fantastic witty one-liners.

Unicorns...check! Rainbows....check! Cute flying squirrel... check! Adorable characters... check! Great graphic novel for ALL AGES.... DOUBLE check!!

What an adorable graphic novel featuring the cosmic adventures of Astrid the unicorn and Stella the flying squirrel. This was fun on so many levels from the colorful and whimsical illustrations to the adventurous story line, right to the side-splitting way that Astrid and Stella communicate with one another. And I didn't even mention their totally amazing robot, Bobo. This is a tale of friendship, fun with a dash of social skills mixed in for good measure. I found myself laughing out loud more than a few times.

Don't wait pick up your copy today, you will be glad you did :)

Grateful to have received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley & Hello!Lucky (Abrams Kids)

This is a great early intro to graphic novels. It is colorful and fun. The characters are unique but I think that there could have been more effort to develop them. The plot was very cute and readers will like that each chapter is essentially a different story. There is a level of problem-solving in each chapter along with some good messages about friendship and bullying. A good read for the unicorn adventure fans.

Cute little graphic novel for younger readers. There was a few words that were in there that made me question the choice of diction, but ultimately it was a very cute and fun fast-paced read. I would include this in my elementary library for the reluctant readers.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is a really cute little graphic novel for early readers. It will be extremely popular with this set for a few reasons. 1. There are cats. 2. There is flatulence humor. 3. The main characters are a unicorn and a flying squirrel. 4. Adventures in space!

This was silly, fun, and colorful! This easy graphic novel is perfect for fans of funny, silly books. The art is fun, colorful, and full of details. The text is big and simple to read. My one complaint is that easy readers, like this, are meant for beginning readers so the words should be sight words or good vocabulary to learn. This book had some made up words and puns, which is fine, but not great for those just starting to read independently. They may need some help pronouncing these made up words as well as understanding the puns behind them. Overall a really fun read!

This was very cute! Astrid is a unicorn and Stella is a flying squirrel. They are best friends who love having adventures together. And snacks. And dance parties. They also love helping others by doing some great problem-solving. They have a robot friend also whose name is Bobo. First chapter - blast off! Only - their rocket blows up. But that's OK - they can build a new one! Second is a visit to Caturn which has been taken over by an evil kitty! Oh no! Working together, our friends figure out a solution. And then there is the planet Bloop and a whale who does not like to get water in their eyes. Just look at the cute little swim trunks on our whale friend, Dry Guy! Again - our innovative friends work together to solve Dry Guy's problem.
Thank you to the publisher for a digital ARC of the book. This would be a great follow-up for kids who are graduating from Narwhal and Jelly to longer books.
