Harry has had a great idea for the school outing - Adventure Universe! But when hes not feeling well, Harry has to stay home. Is that the end of Harrys adventure
Harry is gearing himself up for the class trip to Adventure Universe - and gearing everyone else up too. Theyd never have organised it without him, which is why its so unfair when he gets sick! Still, it looks like things might still go Harrys way, thanks to his parents and a lot of imagination.
Jets is a series of simple stories with lots of lively pictures, ideal for children who are just beginning to enjoy reading.
The Jets series deserves credit for imaginative integration of text and pictures.

Scoular Anderson lives in a house in Argyll, Scotland. He spends lots of time looking at the passing ships rather than getting on with his work. The cat and the dog often come to sleep in his studio because it's the warmest room in the house. Scoular likes writing books which are funny or make the reader learn something. He has written and illustrated about 80 books. He likes drawing dogs and castles but is not too keen on bicycles because they stick out at strange angles.
