It was more than twice as tall as she was.
Jack looked at the black sky.
The flying thing was nowhere
in sight-yet.
“We’ll have to jump over it,” Annie said
“Jump? I don‘t ‘think so,” said Jack.
"It’s too high ”
“I’m going to try anyway,” said Annie.
“Wait. Let’s think first,” said Jack.
But Annie was already backing up.
“One, two, three—go!” she shouted, and took giant
leaping steps toward the meteorite
When Annie got close to the rock,
she pushed off the ground.
Then she flew through space and disappeared behind
the meteorite. “Annie!” Jack called.
There was no answer.
