C Eliott, wrote over a hundred books and became one of the more popular children's authors of the 1950s and 1960s, not much is known about the author himself or indeed the full range of his writing. He is probably best remembered for his series of children's westerns featuring Pocomoto. The new gleaming red postal rocket was all set for its flight round the world to deliver the mails. Tas and his friend, Bluey, take a chance and slip inside the rocket to have a look round. Thanks to Bluey's tampering, the rocket, to their horror, takes off, and neither of them has the slightest idea of how to control it . . . . Ref U5.
