5/6/2023 0 Comments Rick and morty spaceshipPearlman’s pop culture writing is not limited to Star Trek. Other Star Trek titles by Pearlman over the years include the Where’s Waldo?-like Search for Spock: A Star Trek Book of Exploration (Cider Mill, 2017), Star Trek: Redshirt’s Little Book of Doom (Insight Editions, 2016) and Star Trek: Body by Starfleet: A Fitness Guide (Running Press, 2019). “ Fun with Kirk and Spock was really for adults, but it found a huge audience with people who were reading it with their kids.” “I was at a Comic Con and I realized there’s a huge overlap in the Venn diagram of the people who love children’s books and the people who love Star Trek and remember watching it with their families,” he said. That is true of Pearlman’s first Star Trek book, Fun with Kirk and Spock (Cider Mill Press, 2014), a parody of Fun with Dick and Jane. But much of his work has been meant to appeal mostly to adults or to adults and kids equally, while housed in a children’s book format. His recent titles have been skewing toward true children’s books, albeit typically with plenty of content for the adult fans. He has written more than 60 books for children and adults, including 10 Star Trek titles. ![]() Pearlman describes himself as a pop culturalist. “I’m always interested in flexing my writers’ muscles, and I’m a huge fan of the show. “It’s very different from a board book,” he says. This marks Pearlman’s first foray into middle-grade fiction. Star Trek: Trek the Halls (Little, Brown, Oct.) is a riff on the Christmas carol “Deck the Halls” for fans of all ages, starring characters from all the TV series as they sport their ugly Christmas sweaters.Ĭoming up in January is a middle-grade novel, Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova, based on the Star Trek: Prodigy videogame, which is in turn based on the new animated series of the same name on Paramount+ and Nickelodeon. “They start talking about episodes and it evolves into meaningful friendships.” The hardcover book celebrates friendships from all of the series and includes a forward from two of the actors in Star Trek: Voyager.Ī picture book, Star Trek Discovery: Girl Who Made the Stars (Running Press Kids, Aug.), written by Brandon Schultz and adapted by Pearlman, is based on an episode of Star Trek: Short Treks, an anthology series that ran for two seasons starting in 2018, centered on the character Michael Burnham from Star Trek: Discovery. “I noticed that people who would never ordinarily meet will become lifelong friends because of Star Trek,” Pearlman said. Pearlman’s other Star Trek books in 2022 include The Star Trek Book of Friendship: You Have Been, and Always Shall Be, My Friend, written with Jordan Hoffman (Smart Pop, May). Together, the two books teach STEAM concepts to the youngest readers, with plenty of Easter eggs for adults. The combination of photos and illustrations also helps kids understand that “even though the Enterprise is real to us, it’s not really a working spaceship,” Pearlman said. The ships and their position within the spatial photos tie back to specific episodes, a fun bonus for the fans. The book features illustrations of Star Trek ships set on NASA photography of space phenomena like a nebula or the sun.
