* "A luminous masterpiece filled with pathos and poignancy." - Kirkus Reviews , starred review"Abadzis doesn't just show Laika's plight. He makes you feel it in the core of your being. . . .

This graphic novel follows her journey. Nick Abadzis masterfully blends fiction and fact in the intertwined stories of three compelling lives. Along with Laika, there is Korolev, once a political prisoner, now a driven engineer at the top of the Soviet Union's space program, and Yelena, the lab technician responsible for Laika's health and life. This intense triangle is rendered with the pitch-perfect emotionality of classics like Because of Winn Dixie , Shiloh , and Old Yeller . Abadzis gives life to a pivotal moment in modern history, casting light on the hidden moments of deep humanity behind history., Laika was the abandoned puppy destined to become Earth's first space traveler.
