In this book HC sets out to explore the world and meets a genius inventor acquaintance Bob Robin (BR). Bob is a fascinating character and HC is impressed with just how easily Bob is able to find ways to help them on their journey. Together, they investigate Planet Earth and learn about its age and how many layers there are and what those layers do. Thanks to BR, they are both whisked away on a brilliant red rocket to gain a unique perspective on the Earth from space.
