From the author of Escape Room, science and laugh combine in this out-of-this-world adventure, featuring illustrations by Ben Mantle! ‘[A] warm, funny alien read’ VASHTI HARDY ’A bright, brainy book’ THE TIMES You might think that this story is going to be an intergalactic adventure filled with UFOs, black holes, killer robots and some very foul-smelling aliens. And you’d be right. But it’s mostly about a boy called Jake, his embarrassing dad, and the mind-boggling question … are we really alone in the universe? Funny, easy to read and hugely likeable, Space Oddity combines science, comedy and adventure for ages 7 and up. A new, younger story from award-winning writer Christopher Edge, author of The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day. Came out of The Big Idea Competition, from a story entry by scientist Dr Sarah Ryan. Cover and inside illustrations by Ben Mantle (The Land of Roar and I, Cosmo).

It's a fiction book . I liked Jake's dad because he was an Alien and he arrived earth 12 years ago.It was not much good as i thought but it's a good book for fiction lovers. I will recommend it for fiction loving children

Dad was my favourite character. Because he was actually an alien. And he met his wife when she knocked him over after his space ship crashed

This books was quite intriguing as it had many unexpected twists and funny parts to humour the reader. It may be fiction, however some parts were factual and and taught me new things I never knew about space. I love how the son and father become closer and create a crazy yet sweet bond together. I would recommend this to my friends as I think this is the perfect book for them.
