Bookroo's summary

Clem is eager to build his rocket ship, confident he can do it solo. But when things don't go as planned, will his friend Shorty step in to help? Join this lively dinosaur and his cranky bird buddy as they navigate the ups and downs of teamwork. Will Clem's rocket ever take off, or will he learn that sometimes, a little help from a friend is just what you need? Discover the power of friendship and collaboration in this delightful tale of trial and triumph.

From the publisher

The energetic and zany duo Shorty and Clem are back, and this time they learn all about working together! A fresh and dynamic friendship story featuring a spirited dinosaur and a cranky but loving bird. Clem can’t wait to assemble his brand-new rocket ship kit. If all goes right, he’ll blast it off! Vroom! “It looks like you need my help,” observes Shorty. “That’s okay, Shorty. I’ve got this,” says Clem. Even though Clem is sure he doesn’t need help, it turns out that he really does! From the creator of the award-winning app Scruffy Kitty, Michael Slack, Shorty & Clean Blast Off! is perfect for fans of Jory John’s Goodnight Already, Chris Haughton’s books, and Mo Willems.
