Bruce is going to the moon. 'That's a shame,' says his mummy, 'because I'm baking a cake.' Following a line he sees on the floor in front of him, Bruce goes on a long journey to the moon with a little help from some friends he meets along the way. And when he gets there, the moon animals throw a special party with lemonade and cake. Cake! remembers Bruce - I have to go home. And he's just in time to enjoy a big slice of his mummy's delicious cake.
