"SPACE" by Jaxton

Jaxton had a dream one day, he said, about space. He was telling me all about it. He had characters, plot, and drama! It was a great story. So I helped him put it into a book. This was his first book he has ever created, storyline and illustrations, and it is pretty darn amazing for a 3 year old!! On the cover, he drew lots of black stars to represent outer space. On each page, he drew "what happened next" in his story and then he told me what to write.

"The yellow spaceship is for the heros, with lots of windows. The purple spaceship is for the bad guys with only 1 window and it is called A-G-T-U-P-O-J-O." You can see the fire coming out the back end of his yellow spaceship. He got carried away on this page writing letters, so the name of the bad guys' spaceship got extra long.

"This is the world. The brown and green spaceship is for the heros and the bad guys."

Here, he drew the earth. Pretty good, wouldn't you say!!

"This is all the space. The stars are black and green. The spaceships fly in space."

Here is Jaxton's interpretation of outer space. Again, he represents it well. The black and green are stars in a blue sky.

"These are all the bad guys. They have red swords. The king bad guy has lots of arms all the way down to his feet. They put holes in the heros' spaceship, but the heros won and the bad guys floated up."

His story ended with the bad guys. This is actually the illustration he chose to draw first. He was very excited about the bad guys and the heros fighting with swords and the heros winning the battle. He knew that you "float" in space, so he imagined the bad guys floating away once they lost their battle.

The End
