Thank you to illustrator, Brian Won who brought
color and life to my words. Thanks to Rubin Pfeffer (who represents Brian and
me) for championing this book. Thanks also to Maria Modugno at Random House
Books for Young Readers who loved my spacey manuscript from the very
beginning and worked to make it the best it could be. Finally, thanks to
everyone who voted for OSBR—I am honored.
