Summary
Go back to the Space Race with No.1 bestselling author David Walliams for a breathless cinematic adventure full of mystery, action, laughs and surprises—and a secret that could change the course of history…
America. The 1960s.
Stuck on a remote farm with her awful aunt, twelve-year-old orphan Ruth spends every night gazing at the stars, dreaming of adventure.
One night she spots a flying saucer blazing across the sky…before crash-landing in a field. When the spaceship opens and reveals a mysterious alien, all Ruth’s dreams come true.
But does this visitor from another planet have a giant secret?
Spaceboy is a hilarious and action-packed tale for listeners in any solar system.

The adventure!!!
Well I liked most of it but it could have been somewhat better. David Walliams needs make a 2nd book. But does not compare to the classics: gangster granny, the great escape, etc.

Atmospheric music and sound effects
Written and recorded by the same person; this means that you have the right imagery for the story
