This was such a good listen! "The Rapping Astronaut" is a story about a boy named Austro living on a dystopian-like planet, where nobody is allowed to make ANY noise! Austro goes against the grain to be different, and in the end, realizes that sometimes a change that seems bad at the moment can lead to great things. Super impressed with this action-packed book, a very entertaining read with a great message.

The Rapping Astronaut was a fantastic story. It did not disappoint! I loved the creativity of Quietville. The characters were outstanding. This story had an excellent delivery of suspense and surprise. I especially loved the use of sign language since my brother is deaf, and it especially touched my heart. I look forward to more stories from this talented author.

A Fantastic Story!!

In a planet where talking is prohibited, how do you raise your voice? Can you play well, no matter the cards you are given and can a drastic change lead to a peaceful living? Everything is falling into place.


I absolutely loved the story- it inspires kids to stop being scared of the unknown and embraces changes. Moreover, it is empowering as, even in real life, people have to face challenges and sometimes things become worse before they become better. What I mostly liked about the story is its originality, optimism and the fact that it gives children, food for thought.

What a great book!
