The Rocket Ride

Magnus Ljunggren, illustrated by Johanna Kristiansson

Ava is bored and want to do something fun while her brother Ivo is just sitting there reading or doing something equally dull. Ava

gets the great idea to blow a trumpet right in Ivo’s ear… which Ivo is not very happy about, in fact he is rather annoyed! Dang it, Ava just wanted to joke around and liven up this day! Maybe if she could get her hands on some fun mini rockets to put on their backs in order to fly? Maybe even open the forbidden hatch that leads into dark space? Even Ivo must think it is fun to fly with rockets on your back in the middle of the universe. Right?

The Rocket Ride is the second, stand-alone book in the series Spaceship Shark, an action-packed, funny series in the “a little more to read” range – perfect for children who are learning to read and want a lot of pictures and slightly longer sections of text. Magnus Lindgren and Johanna Kristiansson return to the galactic fantasy world that they previously depicted in the popular, more text-heavy series The Space Pilots.
