Rollo, an inquisitive and determined puppy, has made up his mind – he wants to go to the moon. He is sure that he only has to get into a laboratory to be included in the space programme. With great difficulty he achieves this aim, but he finds himself caught up in something far more sinister and from which there seems to be no escape.

Rollo's distraught parents, Henry and Henrietta, television stars who promote the dog food Scrunch, mastermind a superb search-and-rescue operation involving thousands of animals.

An exciting and amusing animal story with a strong message about the horrors of cruelty to animals.

Pandora Pollen is the pseudonym of Pandora Moorhead, who is a qualified doctor of medicine and a teacher. She is the Honorary Secretary of her local branch of the RSPCA, and is involved in many campaigns to prevent cruelty to all animals.
