Sammy is thrilled when he finds a tiny space rocket in the park. And even more thrilled when he discovers its owner, Jax, a very small and very irritable 300-year-old spaceman. Can Sammy save Jax from the greedy clutches of his nosey neighbour Dennis, and help him get home
"Cassidy appeals to the fascination children have as they begin to discover the realities behind the nights sky, opening this dimension within a fun story ... a pairing of science fiction with down-to-earth problems" -- Books for Keeps
Anne Cassidy has since published over twenty teen novels. She is the author of the hugely popular Looking for JJ, which was shortlisted for the 2005 Carnegie Medal and won the 2004 Booktrust Teenage Book Award.
