K-3
Illustrated by
Shahar Kober.
Chicken Zoey boldly marches through the pages in her aviator's cap, heading for outer space; pig Sam follows loyally along. Zoey improvises a spaceship with a basket and helium balloons, but the two animals don't get far and finally crash down after an encounter with some sharp-beaked birds (alien attack ships!). Bright digital illustrations extend the animals' comically exaggerated personalities and their situations.
