Publisher’s Synopsis: Eudora is a typical 3rd grader. A typical 3rd grader who lives on a 36 deck AstroLiner. In space. A normal girl adopted by what you might call… aliens. Her mom is a dog-like species named a Pox and runs the onboard jail (brig). Her dad is an octopus-like species from the planet Pow. She is a girl who has normal ambitions, like being the chief engineer on an AstroLiner.
Eudora is a girl who comes up with a plan to prove her worth by improving her AstroLiner’s engines and breaking all known speed records. Will she succeed and earn a promotion? Or will she end up in the brig? Again…
Brilliant for engaging emergent and early chapter book readers.

My Review
What third grader wouldn’t want to live on a star cruiser? Eudora Space Kid is living the perfect dream life, according to every young child who loves adventure. Eudora is a spunky little girl with a very big imagination. And, it gets her thrown in the brig quite often.
This young child has big plans! She wants to be in charge and she has all the answers. Her love of math and science lead her into a lot of fun and trouble. Living on a space ship called the Astroliner, there are plenty of times to put her math and science knowledge to good use.
Her latest scheme is to make the ship go faster. Her science teacher has been going over what it means for the ship to go into hyper-speed. Eudora decides that it’s up to her to get the ship going faster. She plans a way to sneak into the engine room so that she can adjust the computers there to make the ship travel faster.
Is Eudora really a genius or is she just headed back to the brig? Either way, kids 6-10 are going to love the adventures of Eudora Space Kid!
