In the 1960s, the United States and Russia were in a race to be the
first to reach the moon. Despite their competition, the Russians
sent a very special puppy named Pushinka to American President
John F. Kennedy. Why was she so special? Do the math to find
out. The even-numbered sentence is the answer.
13 + 2 = Pushinka could bark
in two languages.
11 + 8 = Pushinka traveled
to outer space twice.
17 + 3 = Strelka was
Pushinka’s mother.
12 + 5 = Pushinka was born
on an orbiting
spacecraft.
9 + 4 = Pushinka was
named by President
Kennedy.
