The Jolly Jump-ups Journey Through Space (1952)




The Jolly Jump-ups Journey Through Space is pop-up book in the Jolly Jump-ups series. The books are about the adventures of children as they explore the world.

The Jump-Up family appeared in a series of popular books detailing its adventures, which ranged from exploring a new house and neighborhood to crossing America in a trailer. In this story, the family ventures into space, visiting other planets and encountering friendly aliens.
