After hurting her leg, Ella must take it easy for an entire day. When she quickly runs out of activities at home, Ella’s dad offers to take her along on one of his towing operations.  As it happens, his work is right next to Ceres, where Slippy, Madhu and Glitch are set up to watch an ice volcano eruption. Dad agrees to let her stay with them. Ella becomes restless when the volcano doesn’t erupt on schedule, so they head off in search of more active volcanoes. Who knew taking it easy could be so adventurous?

The year is 3021. The place is the Milky Way, where eight-year-old Ella gleefully heads out with her friends on exciting adventures of discovery. At only eight, she already knows quite a bit about space... but there is always more to explore!
