This is the version of The Echo for iPhone / iPod Touch.

Starjet Commander Cody Ferguson, six, turned the gears, adjusted the knobs, and jammed the joystick into hyperdrive. Starship Galaxy went into a steep climb, super thrusters whin- ing at top speed.
Back on earth, Daddy looked angry. Mommy cried. The doc- tor rolled his chair over, put his head close to theirs, and smiled the sour little smile that grown-ups smile when there is nothing in the world to smile about.
Commander Cody turned his back to the people and the machines and the charts with arrows pointing to drawings of the insides of sick ears, braced his feet against the big blue plas- tic box in the middle of the room, and held on to the joystick with both hands. Galaxy shook and rolled. Would it fly apart?
In seconds, the starship left earth and grown-ups and doc- tors' offices far behind.
After clearing the spaceport traffic tower, it blasted out of earth's atmosphere and just clipped the surface of the moon with its starboard tail wing, on the way to Planet Trickster. Trailing crumbs of green cheese, it streaked onward a gabillion light years to a perfect landing on Trickster and a party thrown by clowns and magicians and a pretty teacher in pink named Miss Clark.
