“An entertaining sci-fi romp with grounded, real-world tween struggles” - The School Library Journal 📕Aku: Journey to Ibra | Pre-Order Now wherever books are sold or 🔗 in bio 🚀 Blast off into a sci-fi adventure in this electrifying middle grade debut starring Aku—the groundbreaking 3D character who graced the cover of TIME Magazine. - Aku has always dreamed of becoming an astronaut. It’s easier to picture life among the stars than deal with the bully at school—or the pain of his grandfather’s mysterious disappearance. But when a strange space helmet shows up in his basement, Aku is pulled into something far bigger than he ever imagined. The space helmet doesn’t just look cool—it teleports him to Ibra, a distant planet under siege. There, precious Lunaberries are being stolen by a ruthless space militia, and Aku’s grandfather may be the key to stopping them. With the help of his best friends and a few unlikely allies, Aku must dream bigger than ever before, find the courage to lead, and discover that bravery isn’t about having no fear—it’s about rising above it.

From Micah Johnson: DREAMGAZER On view in the sculpture garden, Art Miami 60 inches Customizable fiberglass sculpture Micah Johnson has made a significant impact in both the art world and the digital space. Through his poignant artwork and the creation of Aku, he’s helping to reshape narratives around race, identity, and the potential of children. His work is a powerful testament to the importance of empowering future generations to dream big—and to never question if they can achieve the impossible.
