MONKEY IN THE ROCKET
A brave little monkey. A gigantic rocket. And one incredible journey into space!
Meet Sam and Bam, two curious monkeys with a very big dream. When the Global Space Agency announces that it needs one brave monkey astronaut, the friends get the opportunity of a lifetime.
But becoming an astronaut isn't easy!
Sam and Bam must take on a series of exciting astronaut challenges designed to test their fitness, balance, courage, concentration, and ability to stay calm. They climb, balance, spin, float, and even face the roar of a noisy rocket simulator.
Sam keeps trying his best through every challenge. And when Bam discovers that some of the tests are harder for him, he shows that being a good friend can be just as important as being the one chosen for the mission.
Then comes the big announcement:
Sam will be the first monkey to fly into space!
Dressed in his astronaut suit and ready for adventure, Sam climbs aboard the towering rocket. The countdown begins...
10... 9... 8...
WHOOOOSH!
Sam blasts high above the clouds and into space, where he sees the beautiful blue Earth far below. But getting into space is only half the adventure-Sam still has to make it safely home!
With an exciting return to Earth, parachutes, a dramatic splashdown, and friends waiting anxiously for him, young readers can follow Sam's remarkable adventure from astronaut training all the way to his triumphant return.
Monkey in the Rocket is a colourful, action-filled picture book about more than rockets and space. It's a story about believing in yourself, practicing, staying calm when things get difficult, supporting your friends, and never giving up on a dream.
Perfect for young children who love:
- Rockets, astronauts and outer space
- Funny and lovable animal characters
- Adventure and discovery
- Stories about courage and perseverance
- Friendship, encouragement and helping others
- Celebrating effort and achievement
With bright, detailed illustrations and an easy-to-follow story, Monkey in the Rocket makes a wonderful read-aloud book for parents, grandparents, teachers and caregivers-and a fun choice for bedtime, classrooms, preschool, kindergarten, birthdays, or any young child fascinated by space.
Every great adventure begins with a dream.
Join Sam and Bam at the Monkey Training Centre, count down to lift-off, and discover whether one determined little monkey can make history.
Climb aboard and begin the adventure today!
