Once Upon a Stardate - Fairy Tales and Fables from the Final Frontier

Transport yourself across the galaxy with this collection of illustrated Star Trek adventures, adapted from classic fairy tales and narrated by Lieutenant Commander Data.

Once Upon a Stardate collects beloved fairy tales from around our world, retold within the Star Trek universe. Familiar stories such as "Pinocchio," "The Emperor's New Clothes," and "Hansel and Gretel" take on new meaning as Data writes futuristic Starfleet-inspired versions of old Earth classics in an attempt to understand, and convey to the next generation, humanity’s lasting connection to storytelling.

Data reimagines stories from his adventures, as well as from Starfleet records, to create his own versions of:
The Three Little Pigs: La’An, Chapel, and Ortegas defend the U.S.S. Enterprise while the other senior officers are on an away mission Rip Van Winkle: Scotty is trapped in a transporter pattern for decades and rematerializes on a different U.S.S. Enterprise than the one he knew Jack and the Beanstalk: Wesley Crusher attempts to outwit Q in order to share high-tech seeds with a struggling community The Pied Piper: Garak helps a Cardassian outpost deal with an infestation of tribbles And many more!
Each of these eighteen tales features characters, locations, and events from across all 60 years of Star Trek and are brought to life with original full-color illustrations. The tales are supplemented by fourteen shorter fables that share wisdom from some of Starfleet’s best-known captains: Kirk, Picard, Sisko, Janeway, Archer, Pike, and Burnham.
