About This Book
The sharp hiss of the spaceship’s engines fills the air, vibrating through Pedro’s whiskers as the stars streak past the windows. The cool, dusty surface of the moon feels strange beneath their tiny paws, and the silence is almost magical. But just as they start to explore, a surprising discovery changes everything.
