Laika was the abandoned puppy destined to become Earth's first
space traveler. This is 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 and now a driven engineer at the
top of the Soviet 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's story will
speak straight to your heart.
