This is the third book of Space Boy trilogy, which has received excellent reviews:

"Kids will want multiple readings!" -School Library Journal

"A 'thrilling adventure'" -Kirkus Reviews


Captures the sensibility of popular graphic novels and comic book-style picture books, coupled with an appealing, contemporary text format.

The mix of imagination, outer space, monsters, humor, and sibling rivalry has guaranteed appeal for boys and girls alike.

Ideal for reluctant and emergent readers: The easy-to-read text is perfect both for reading aloud and for newly independent readers to enjoy on their own and the highly visual style makes it an ideal selection for reluctant readers.

As indicated by the success of Not a Box by Antoinette Portis, stories about children using ordinary objects to embark on imaginative adventures are highly appealing.

Ideal for teaching the following CCSS literacy skills:



Understand characters, settings, and major events in a story

Describe the connection between two individuals, events, ideas, or pieces of information in a text

Identify the main topic and retelling key details of a text
