Written by Will Buckingham, Illustrated by Monica Arnaldo
Lucy and the Rocket Dog is a fun, cute book about adventure in space. Lakia did not follow Lucy in for dinner and went looking for Lucy in Prototype 1, a spaceship in Lucy’s backyard that she built. Lakia inadvertently bumps a button that blasts off into space. Years later Lakia is playing with space dogs and Lucy is home teaching her neighbor about stars, but Lucy is older. Will Lucy ever see Lakia again? Read this fun filled book to see if the space-loving girl will ever find her confused dog Lakia again.
