A cute little story about a boy who must travel through a wormhole to save his mother from another dimension. If this had been any longer, I probably wouldn't have liked it, but at this length it was short enough that I didn't mind that I didn't get too attached to the characters or really got excited about the story. That said, I won't remember this either. I didn't feel like I wasted my time, but I also won't be recommending this to anyone.

I enjoyed this story overall, I think, but the whole naked thing was very weird and uncomfortable. The more OSC I read as an adult, the less I like him. Not sure if I'd recommend it overall but if you have a a few minutes to kill I guess it isn't not worth a read??

It was cute.
Very short. I listened to it 2x speed and finished it in a single run. Not much complex at all, but different.

Short story. Good, but not great. The magic in it felt similar to Mither Mages.

There are two things you should know about Todd: 1. He wants to go to space, but doesn't think he'll ever be smart enough or fit enough to be an astronaut 2. His mom went missing 4 years ago and nobody knows where she went.
This was a short, fun story of a boy who dreams of space.
Space Boy is an adventure story, where a kid is the hero. But, unlike most other adventure stories of this type, the parents aren't absentee, but are very much involved in the action. Instead of going off on his own, Todd asks his dad for help. Then Todd's dad helps him make and execute his plan Honestly, the change felt refreshing.

We follow Todd as he goes to rescue his mom from where she's trapped on another planet. It's a planet where physics and time work differently.Space Boy is an adventure story, where a kid is the hero.
