Finn, your Starvard guide

Ciao, mi chiamo Finn e ti aiuterò a capire questo libro.

Eccolo, spiegato come se avessi 10 anni:

Un club di fabbricanti di cannoni si annoia perché la guerra è finita, così il loro capo ha un'idea audace: costruire il cannone più grande mai fatto e sparare una palla cava fino alla Luna, con delle persone dentro. Questo volume contiene anche il seguito, Intorno alla Luna, così entrambe le spedizioni sono in questo unico libro: prima la costruzione e il lancio, poi il viaggio stesso, intorno alla Luna nel freddo e nel buio dello spazio.
