Baby Bear finds a rocket and invites an owl to join him on a trip to the moon. They explore the moon's surface and have a picnic before returning home. Baby Bear lands back down the chimney soaked from the rain. When his mother sees his dirty state, he tells her about his adventure visiting the moon, though she does not believe his story.
7. An owl flew past. Thats a smart rocket, he said.
Where are you off to? The moon, said Baby Bear.
Would you like to come too? Yes please, said owl.
8. An aeroplane roared out of the clouds. Baby Bear
waved and some of the passengers waved back.
9. On and on they flew, up and up, above the clouds,
past millions of stars till at last they landed on the
moon.
10. Theres nobody here, said Baby Bear. There are no trees, said
the owl. Its a bit boring, said Baby Bear. Shall we have a
picnic? What a good idea, said the owl.
11. Wed better go, said Baby Bear. My bath must be ready now. Off
they went, down and down. The owl got out and flew away. Goodbye,
he said. It was so nice to meet you.
12. It rained and the rain dripped through Baby Bears
helmet.
13. Home went Baby Bear. Back down the chimney and
on to the living room carpet with a BUMP!
14. Mrs Bear came into the room. Look at the state of you! she
gasped as she led him away to the bathroom. Why, you look as
if youve been up the chimney.
15. As a matter of fact, said Baby Bear, I have been up
the chimney. I found a rocket and went to visit the
moon. Mrs Bear laughed. You and your stories, she
said. Whatever next?
