Archie Morningstar has waited 8 years, 8 months, and 8 days for Take Your Kid To Work Day. His dad is a taxi driver ( or is he ) and tells Archie he's in for a BIG adventure. Many things happen, like how Archie finds out his dad is a space taxi driver, he can read special space maps, helps the space police, gets a space cat called Pockets who helps them go on space missions, and more! I think this story is great for people who can read slightly hard books.
Space Taxi: Archie Takes Flight
By Wendy Mass, Michael Brawer
Archie Morningstar learns a big family secret and helps save the universe. All before breakfast!
It's not every day a regular kid like Archie gets to wake up at midnight. But today is Take Your Kid to Work Day, and Archie is finally allowed to ride along in his dad's taxi cab. He has been waiting eight years, eight months, and eight days for this moment to arrive.
But he's about to discover his dad is no ordinary cab driver...In fact, he drives an intergalactic space taxi! All night long, he shuttles aliens from one corner of the universe to another. And being a space taxi copilot is no easy task: Archie must steer them into wormholes, keep them from crashing into planets, deal with a very unusual cat...and save the universe from an evil mastermind!
Space Taxi marks the debut of a brand new chapter book series from New York Times bestselling author Wendy Mass and teacher Michael Brawer, filled with humor, adventure, and plenty of science to impress your friends and teachers!
