A Buzzby StorybookThe Cardboard Rocket Crew

Ages 3 to 10 Preschool to 5th Grade 10 pages Read aloud

The first pages

A huge cardboard box sat in Mia's backyard in Houston. "Let's make a rocket!" said Mia. Her friends Tariq and June cheered.

Mia wanted the rocket painted red. Tariq wanted it silver. June wanted it purple with stars. They argued until nobody was painting at all.

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • What did the friends argue about?
  • How did June's idea help everyone?
  • If you went to space, what would you want to see?
