Jack Says:

Today I went to the doctors and had two objections. Daddy said I was very brave and I choose a Lunar Jim story book because he is brave too. TED and Ripple got lost in a cave but Lunar Jim rescued them and used a piece of string to find his way back to his space station. Mummy and Daddy use a SatNam to find their way home in the car. The lady says “turn left” a lot.

We also have The Lunar Fluffies which is book where Lunar Jim finds some Lunar Fluffies that want to be kept warm. Jim finds some crystals and puts them in a cave that the Fluffies live in.

I really like Lunar Jim and I have got nearly all of these Lunar Jim Toys.

Daddy Says:

Jack is absolutely mad about Lunar Jim and he has a few of the books that are based on the TV series. The story of Jim finding his friends is pleasant enough and it is full of colour images of the real on screen characters. The trouble with most books that spin off from a succesful children’s television idea is that they are not as well written or constructed as books by a “proper” children’s author. This book is slightly better written than the stories you get in the toddlers magazines but if you want a good childrens book about space then Man On The Moon is far better.
