Publisher's Synopsis
One morning, while his father worked on a novel that would one day become a best seller (for an entire four days!), Allen, at age five, asked, "Dad, can I write?" Dad said, "Well, let's see . . ." They wrote together; or at least the son wrote. Dad took dictation. The result became - Allen's Rocket, specifically for children as they enter the realm of chapter books. Allen dreams of flying his own rocket ship into space, and receives a mysterious challenge from the even more mysterious Dr. Intelligent. That is, if Allen can pass a test he'll receive the the space ship of his dreams. But when he passes this test, the ship arrives, and it's only a toy! Or is it? Join Allen as he becomes Astronaut Allen, and travels to the moon to meet the tiny Moonbug who grows taller than Allen, and the Mabbit, part mouse and part rabbit, who can fly faster than the speed of light. Join them in their travels to find Dr. I, as Allen tries to return the Moonbug to his normal size and re-unite the Mabbit with his parents. But first they must confront a fierce bird, a dangerous road that comes alive, and the Mighty Bluubs. Will they make it? Will Astronaut Allen ever see his home again? And Will Dr. I turn out to be good or evil? It's all in the pages of Allen's Rocket.
