Bookroo's summary

Harry's class plans a moonwatch with a newly acquired telescope, but Harry's ambitions soar beyond mere observation. As he dreams of traveling to the moon, the question arises: can imagination turn into reality? Join Harry on a journey filled with wonder and unexpected possibilities, where the night sky is just the beginning. Will his dreams take flight, or will they remain grounded? Discover the adventure that awaits when a simple classroom project ignites a cosmic dream.

From the publisher

When Harry finds an ad in the paper for a used telescope, Miss Mackle suggests that the class raise money to buy it. The telescope will make their moon study unit even more exciting! Once they get the telescope, the class can have a nighttime moonwatch. But Harry wants to do more than watch the moon-he wants to go there! Can Harry really take a trip into outer space? There’s laughs aplenty in the short snappy text-just the thing to turn new readers on to books. (Booklist)
