I'm Going to Outer Space! by Timothy Young

3.0

This was an enjoyable read overall. Vibrant illustrations complement a simple story about a boy named Luis who longs to go to Outer Space. He tells us about all the places he want to go and things he wants to see as he waits by the window for a space ship to come and pick him up. Unfortunately his ride doesn't arrive before bedtime but I get the impression that Luis will be waiting again tomorrow. My only qualm with the book is that a few of the images of the aliens may be a bit too scary for more sensitive young readers.
