About the Book
I Am on the Moon is more than a children’s story—it is a celebration of perseverance, curiosity, and the spirit of exploration. Inspired by the success of ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3 mission, the book follows the adventurous journey of Pragyan and Vikram, two characters who set out to uncover the Moon’s secrets.
The story reflects the real-life challenges and triumphs of ISRO scientists, teaching children that even when obstacles arise, determination and hope can turn setbacks into victories. Through their journey, young readers learn that failure is not the end but a stepping stone on the path to success.
Themes of Inspiration and Hope
At its heart, the book imparts powerful lessons:
- Dream Big – Every child has the potential to reach for the Moon and stars.
- Turn ideas into action: Dream Big, but don’t just dream, take the first step towards making it happen
- Perseverance – Like the scientists behind Chandrayaan-3, persistence leads to breakthroughs.
- Resilience – Failures are not final; they shape strength and character.
- Belief in Oneself – Confidence and determination are the keys to turning dreams into reality.
- Hope– Never lose hope even in the darkest hour.
- Smile – It is important to keep smiling even when you face obstacles.
SaiSree T. weaves these themes into a narrative filled with imagination and adventure, ensuring children remain engaged while absorbing life-affirming messages.
Why This Book Matters
I Am on the Moon arrives at a moment of great pride for India, as the nation’s space achievements captivate the world’s imagination. Shubhanshu Shukla’s recent visit to the International Space Station (ISS) beautifully echoes the dreams woven through Sreemoyee’s debut book.
Shukla’s journey is a testament to perseverance, resilience, and disciplined preparation—qualities that helped him overcome setbacks like multiple launch delays and successfully conduct scientific experiments in space.
In I Am On The Moon, SaiSree T. highlights these same vital values—perseverance, consistency, hard work, and hope—through a child-friendly, story-driven narrative. By doing so, she not only introduces young readers to the wonders of science but also inspires them to dream boldly and embrace challenges with courage.
