Color saturated pictures take you on an adventure of a story as our main character tells you about their plans to travel to the moon. Watch as they plan exactly what they'll need and how to reach it and what the results of their fabulous adventures will be. Great story for entertaining your fearless little ones and encouraging them to use their imagination and reach for the stars.

A fun book with lots of rhyming about making a trip to outer space.

It’s fine. The three year old said “It’s good,” but didn’t really seem into it.

Continuing our outer space themes this week! This book was adorable! Bonus for lots of rhyming words! My students were pointing them out! The boys loved his space truck being a big dump truck!

When a young boy dreams of travelling through space, even though his friends laugh at him, he makes plans and prepares for his big adventure. A great example of using your imagination to go wherever you want. This book is a wonderful way to bring out the creativeness in young readers. Ask them where they want to go and how they will get there.

A young boy dreams of going into space, just as soon as he finishes lunch. Rhyming

[Mary · Rating 1 out of 5]

The rhyming was off in several places. For being an "adventure" story it wasn't very exciting. This one is a miss.

I loved the art and wanted to like it more - but found myself bothered by the scientific inaccuracy (which admittedly is silly). I think I was hoping it would be more nerdy than it was...
