Emma Wimble, Accidental Astronaut

the long version

Oops! When Emma got into the Cosmo-Jet, she didn't mean to go any place. And she didn't mean to cause trouble — she never did. It's just that she did what she wanted — without listening to advice from anyone, not even her friend Mr. Mishkin. But the rocket engines roared to life when Emma pushed some buttons on the control panel, and she and Mr. Mishkin took off for unknown galaxies and an adventure that could cost them their lives. For Emma, it was a dream come true — a chance to be just like her favorite pretend space hero, Zapp Guyzer. Except that Emma's adventure was *real* — complete with talking robots, six-armed aliens, and a far-off planet ruled by the Evil Grox! Through her adventure Emma learns that God wants her to listen to people who know more than she does and follow their instructions for her own good.
