We have big news to share. Sparks to Stars: The Story of Astra & Zeke is officially live on Kickstarter!

This picture book is more than a story. It is a movement to show kids that they do not have to wait until they are grown-ups to be leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs. They are ready now, and Astra and Zeke are here to remind them of that.

Since founding the Society of Child Entrepreneurs, we have watched kids as young as six create businesses, pitch their ideas with confidence, and solve problems in their communities. What they need most is belief: belief in themselves, and a world that believes in them too. That is where Astra and Zeke come in.

✨ Sparks to Stars is their origin story:

• Astra is the dreamer, planner, and stargazer.
• Zeke is the whirlwind of energy and ideas.
• Together, they launch Sparks to Stars, a coaching business dedicated to helping other kids bring their boldest ideas to life.

This Kickstarter campaign will fund illustrations, printing, and distribution so children everywhere can see themselves as leaders right now. Every pledge helps us bring this book to life and supports SoCE programs that give kids real-world opportunities to lead and grow.

Join us on Kickstarter!

We already have our very first backers (thank you!) and cannot wait to see this community continue to grow. Please back the campaign today and share with friends, teachers, and families who believe in kids’ ideas as much as we do.

Because kids do not have to wait to lead. Their time is now.
