Summary | Joe wants to find a way to the stars. With the help of his dad, he builds a ladder, a tower, a pogo stick-and even a rocket to go up, up, up ... oh no! What next? Then Joe knows exactly what to do. But why on earth are they building a shed? An uplifting and magical tale of imagination, sky-high courage, and the bond between father and son. Hans Christian Andersen Award winner David Almond conjures the imaginative bond between a father and son as they pool their resources to defeat gravity and realize a dream. |
