Bookroo's summary

Pip the mouse dreams of becoming an Astromouse and reaching the moon made of stinky cheese. Armed with a homemade rocket, he embarks on his daring journey. But space travel isn't as easy as it seems, and Pip's adventure takes unexpected turns. Will he conquer his fears and achieve his dream, or find comfort in the familiar? Join Pip in this heartwarming tale of dreams, courage, and the surprises that await when you reach for the stars.

From the publisher

When Pip the mouse learns that the moon is made of stinky cheese, he has a big idea – he’s going to be an Astromouse! Pip makes himself a rocket out of an old funnel and some cardboard, and prepares for take-off. But blasting to the moon is harder than he thought and things don’t go quite to plan. On his way home Pip sees a huge reflection of the moon in a pond. The moon has come to him! As he reaches down to break off a piece of stinky cheese, the eyes of a large frog appear and a frightened Pip runs all the way back home. He decides the moon is far to scary for a mouse, and he’d much rather live with his mom instead.
