One evening, Rosa sneaks out to visit her friend Livia, Galileo's daughter. He has promised Livia she can look through his magic tube. Rosa is wonder-struck at the sight of the mountains on the Moon and, as she creeps home, she is filled with dreams of one day becoming a scientist like him. Wouldn't it be wonderful to go to the Moon! A vibrant story that brings to life one of Galileo's fantastic discoveries and begins to explore our solar system.
