What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

This easy-to-read story about friendship by comedian and storyteller Bill Cosby is now a Scholastic Reader! Little Bill and his friends LOVE the TV show Space Explorers. And so when the new Space Explorers video game comes out, they each want a copy. But when Little Bill asks his parents to buy him the game, they say no. So Little Bill and his friends go to their friend Andrew’s house to play the game. What they discover, though, is that the video game isn’t nearly as much fun nor as challenging as what their imaginations can dream up!
