The Blackness of Space

The STEAM Chasers, Book 2

By: Doresa Jennings

Narrated by: William Wells

The STEAM Chasers are back with another exciting adventure into the world of science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. This time they are headed to Space Camp for an action packed journey into space exploration. While there, Shar, Terrence, Ebony, Akiya, Marcus, and Chase learn about the contributions Black Americans have made to space science, human space flight, astrophysics, astronomy, and aerospace engineering.

Ebony has been waiting what seemed like her entire life to have a Space Camp experience; will an unfortunate encounter with someone who is clearly not a fan of the STEAM Chasers ruin her dream come true?

Come along with the STEAM Chasers and learn about 20 black Americans who have helped to expand our understanding of the universe in which we live. Open the book and dive head first into the blackness of space!

Great listen for my kid (and me)

My son and I listened to this book daily in the way to school. The story was engaging and appropriate. He is 5 and grasped the bigger concepts. He was able to (and seemed excited to) ask questions about the things he didn’t understand. He has declared that he is headed to space camp when he is 11 just like the steam chasers. Great job telling a story with a wonderfully positive message!

Love These Kids!!

Another great and positive adventure for the STEAM CHASERS! Entertainment and learning! Awesome! The narrator really brings these kids to life! Great job!
