You might think that this story is going to be an intergalactic adventure filled with UFOs, black holes, killer robots and some very foul-smelling aliens. And you'd be right.

But it's mostly about a boy called Jake, his embarrassing dad, and the mind-boggling question ... are we really alone in the universe?

Funny, easy to read and hugely likeable, Space Oddity combines science, comedy and adventure for ages 7 and up.

A new, younger story from award-winning writer Christopher Edge, author of The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day.

Came out of The Big Idea Competition, from a story entry by scientist Dr Sarah Ryan.

Cover and inside illustrations by Ben Mantle ( The Land of Roar and I, Cosmo ).
