Mr. Hop

thinks for a moment,

his chin in his hand.

“Very interesting,”

says old Doc Peeper.

“I’ll get my bag.”

Then Doc Peeper

and Lieutenant Lily

and Mr. Hop

ride the skimmer down.

Only young Jake

is left aboard

to guide the great ship home

if anything bad happens

to the rest of the crew

on the calm but scary

Planet of the Grapes.

The skimmer hovers

above the planet,

where only a bunch

of great grapes

waits to greet them.

“One of those grapes

is Commander Toad,

brave and bright,

bright and brave,”

says Lieutenant Lily.

She sneezes.

“Which one?”

asks Mr. Hop.

“I do not know,”

says Lieutenant Lily.

“All grapes look alike to me.”

“That one

might be the commander,”

says Mr. Hop.

“The one with the lump

where his hat

would be.”

Mr. Hop calls down

to the lumpy grape.

“Don’t worry, Commander.

We are here to help.”
