Designed for toddlers (2 years and under): a deliberately short, very simple and reassuring story.

In the future, far, far away, there was a big, shiny spaceship. It was called Star Jumper. Star Jumper flew high, high in the sky, past the twinkling stars and the big, round moon. The captain was brave Captain Lily. Captain Lily loved her spaceship. "Zoom, zoom," it went through space.

One day, a call came. "Help, help!" said a tiny voice. It was from a little lost spaceship.

Captain Lily said, "We will help!" Her friend, Robot Max, beeped next to her. "Beep-boop, let's go!" he said.

They flew fast, fast through the stars, past the red planet and the blue planet. There was a big asteroid! "Oh no!" said Robot Max. "Turn right," smiled Captain Lily. "Whoosh!" They flew around it safely.

Finally, they found the little spaceship. "Thank you, thank you!" said the little voice. Captain Lily smiled. "We are friends," she said.

And so, Captain Lily, Robot Max, and their new friend flew back home. "Hooray!" they all cheered.

Zoom, zoom, the Star Jumper flew, happy in the starry night. And everyone felt safe and loved. The end.
