Illustrated page 4 of the space story

It was Leo's birthday. "Do you know how many times you've been all the way around the Sun?" his teacher asked. Leo thought hard. He didn't know. His hand shot straight up anyway. "No — but I'm going to find out!"

Illustrated page 9 of the space story

In the next room, a bright yellow ball hung at the centre, and eight smaller balls circled slowly around it on thin wires. Leo found the blue-green one, "That's Earth!" — third from the middle — moving around the sun. EARTH TRAVELS 940 MILLION KILOMETRES AROUND THE SUN. THAT JOURNEY TAKES EXACTLY ONE YEAR. Leo watched the Earth ball move. His teacher had been right. Every single birthday: one full trip around.

Illustrated page 14 of the space story

Inside the spacecraft, the walls were covered in buttons, switches and dials. Leo put his face close to the panel and looked at each one. Astronauts had to know exactly what every single button did before they were allowed to launch. He pictured himself in the white suit, helmet locked, strapped into the seat. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2,1 BLASTOFF!
