[i]"Reaching for the Stars" can be considered, in some respects, a campaign biography, especially with its publication just two months before the November election. But if you ignore those final pages about his decision to run for Congress, though, it is also a tale of success, with Hernandez, in the book's epilogue, helpfully enumerating the steps he followed to turn his childhood dreams into reality — steps, he says, can be used by anyone to "harvest your own stars," even if you're not interested in being an astronaut.[/i]
[i]"I started out as what I would categorize as a typical migrant farm worker," Hernandez told SPACE.com in a recent interview. "Even though I was born here in the United States, I was born to immigrant parents. We would go back for three months at a time [to Mexico] and then we would spend nine months here in the United States following the harvest of the crop in the San Joaquin Valley of California."[/i]
