Pookey The Mousepig In Outer Space, Exclusive First Chapter Preview.

Chapter 1

It was a beautiful Summers night and Mia was staring up at the stars. The smell of charcoaled sausages and sizzling burgers still filled her nostrils. It was nearly her bedtime, but she begged to stay up for five more minutes just so she could see a shooting star.
