Synopsis

How can a few triangles, circles and squares make a rocket ship? With imagination, of course! Billy just got his super 3D Make-a-Million-Things-in-a-Box puzzle, and Olie's going to help him build a rocket ship. The boys have the instructions and the puzzle pieces, but they don't know where to start, so Aunt Polieanna whisks the boys up to Puzzle Planet, where things are never what they seem. The boys soon find out that with a li'l figurin' and lots of imagination, building rocket ships is a cinch!
