This is a book that will leave you wondering what is real and what is imagined. Young Alex loves to create things with cardboard boxes and other bits of junk he's collected, but his biggest challenge comes when his pesky little brother threatens to foil his latest invention. When Alex is forced to reveal his plans for escape into outer space in his cardboard spacecraft, he must find a way to prevent his brother Jonathan from ruining everything.
There is plenty of sibling rivalry, fancy space and inventor's talk, and creativity in this short but fun book. The reader won't know where the truth ends and Alex's fantastic imagination begins as this book moves from the bedroom to far above the Earth. It will appeal to young inventors, older siblings who have to deal with little pests, space fans, and anyone wanting a curious but rewarding short book.
