This imaginative space adventure takes young readers on an interplanetary journey that blends cosmic exploration with playful humor. A child astronaut voyages through our solar system, experiencing whimsical activities like biking on Neptune and toasting marshmallows on the sun, until discovering asteroids threatening Earth.
