The Vlad flea picture books present historical events in lively stories with Vlad relating the ups and downs in his cheeky inimitable style. The information in the tales are accurate and backed with a fact file at the end of the book.

On 19th August 1960 Strelka and Belka the dogs were launched into space as part of the Russian space programme. They had been taken from the streets of Moscow where they lived as strays, and found themselves in a training centre undergoing various tests to prepare them for the adventure ahead. However, despite all the work nobody knew if they would survive the adventure, as no living creature had before. The stakes were high as both Russia and America raced to be the first to conqueror space and dominate the uncharted territory beyond the Earth's atmosphere.
