0:00.0 | Our guest reader today is Christina, and she will be reading today's story. |
0:19.5 | Oliver in outer space. |
0:21.6 | Late one night, Oliver was in his bedroom, staring out into space, at a collage of sparkling |
0:29.7 | stars through his telescope. Oliver was a curious boy, who often wondered what was out |
