When a boy discovers a single-propeller airplane in his closet, he does what any young adventurer would do: He flies…
it into outer space! Millions of miles from Earth, the plane begins to sputter and quake, its fuel tank on empty. The boy executes a daring landing on the moon. Coincidentally, engine trouble has stranded a young Martian on the other side of the moon, and he's just as frightened and alone. Grades K-3. 2007.
