Synopsis

You may know that Leonard Nimoy played an alien on Star Trek, but did you know that key inspiration for his role came from his childhood experiences as the child of Jewish immigrants in Boston’s North End? This story draws the connection between otherness, perseverance, and pursuing a dream.

What Other Families Say About This Book

"My son and his Dad love this book. The illustrations are glorious and trekkie Dad is thrilled to have an easy way to introduce his little vulcan to the series. Me? I'm waiting for a PJ Library book that explains the Jewish connection to Star Wars."
