The ghost and Mr. Chicken: A timid typesetter hasn't a ghost of a chance of becoming a reporter - until he decides to solve a murder mystery and ends up spending a fright-filled night in a haunted houseThe reluctant astronaut: Royal Fleming is a thirty-five-year-old carnival worker with a fear of heights who runs a spaceship ride for kids and still lives at home. Concerned about his future, Royal's dad sends an application to NASA in his son's name. After being accepted, Royal discovers his new job involves sweeping floors, not space travel. But when the space race heats up, he's chosen as part of a plan to send an ordinary citizen into orbitThe shakiest gun in the West: Jesse W.
