    About this ebook

    Zack is a planet-hopping pro—but a return to Earth results in some unexpected puppy trouble in the tenth Galaxy Zack chapter book adventure.

    Zack is headed back to Earth for the first time since moving to Nebulon. He can’t wait to see his best friend Bert and show his new friend, the former bully Seth Stevens, all around his old stomping grounds! Luna’s excited too. A little too excited. When the pooch escapes and goes missing, sightseeing plans take an unexpected turn. Will Zack find Luna before he has to head home to Nebulon?

    With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Galaxy Zack chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.

    About Ray O’Ryan and Jason Kraft

    Chapter 1

    Mystery Planet

    Zack Nelson sat at the kitchen table. He was in his house on the planet Nebulon. His dog, Luna, curled up on the floor beside him.

    A holographic, 3-D image of stars in space floated above the table.

    This planet-collector that dad just brought home from Nebulonics is so grape! said Zack. He ran his finger along the screen of a small handheld device.

    Luna tilted her head and yawned. Then she scratched her ear with her back paw.

    It’s a game that lets me keep track of every planet I’ve ever been to. When it shows me a planet I’ve visited, I have to place it where it belongs in space.

    The 3-D image of a small blue planet appeared among the stars.

    That is Araxie, said Zack. It belongs over here.

    Using his finger, Zack moved the floating planet to a far corner of the star field. Then he tapped on the device again.

    A planet covered with orange specks appeared.

    That’s Cisnos, Zack said. He moved the planet to where it belonged among the stars. It has orange mountains.

    Arrrrr, moaned Luna, stretching
