In THE NIGHT MY BED TURNED INTO A SPACESHIP, Till is struggling to wrap his head around a huge problem he is having. Every night, his bed goes bonkers, morphing, twisting, transforming, and disappearing. Till, the self-proclaimed “coolest kid you will ever meet,” loses his cool when he tells us the story about the night his bed turned into a spaceship. The sad thing about it is Till wasn’t even around to see it happen! He was at a not so cool, ice cream free, sleepover party playing pin the tail on the donkey. Till’s nosey little brother Lincoln, on the other hand, was in the right place at the right time. Lincoln’s nosiness paid off when he peeked into Till’s bedroom and got the ride of a lifetime up into space on Till’s bed that had magically turned into a spaceship.
