A Story by Riley

Editor's note: The following is an edited transcription of an oral tale related by Riley Pickenpaugh. Copyright 2007. All rights reserved.

Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Leo with red hair and glasses. Leo's best friend was a blue mouse named Space. His name was Space because he lived in outerspace.

One night Space flew in his spaceship to Leo's house. Together, they snuck back out of the house to go for a ride. Space flew his spaceship and let Leo use his rocket. When they took off, fire came out of the bottom of the rocket. They flew to Mars, the red planet.

When they reached Mars, Leo told Space he had to turn around and go home before his parents woke up. Space told Leo he could use his rocket to go back to Earth because it goes really fast. Space told Leo he would come see him again soon.

Stay tuned for the continuing adventures of Leo and Space.
