A Boy's Best Friend
Mr Anderson said,“Where's Jimmy,dear?” “Out on the crater,” said Mrs Anderson.“Robutt is with him.Did he arrive?” “Yes.He's at the rocket station,going through the tests.I haven't really seen one since I left Earth 15 years ago.”
“Jimmy has never seen one,” said Mrs Anderson.
“Because he's Moonborn and can't visit Earth.That's why I'm bringing one here.I think it's the first one ever on the Moon.”
Jimmy was out on the crater,as his mother had said.His arms and legs were long and agile.He looked thicker and stubbier with his spacesuit on,but he could handle the lunar gravity as no Earthborn human being could.The outer side of the crater sloped southward and the Earth,which was low in the southern sky,was nearly full,so that the entire craterslope was brightly lit.The slope was a gentle one and even the weight of the spacesuit couldn't keep Jimmy from racing up it in a floating hop that made the gravity seem nonexistent.
