<b>It's a book within a book! Wonderfully wacky as ever, Colin McNaughton sets off in search of strange and silly aliens.</b><br><br>When an author gets his book in the mail, he's nervous to have his family read it. And no wonder! It stars a guy who takes off in a rocket ship and meets a ghastly array of alien creatures — some smelly, some with eyes in their belly — and one lovely alien who steals his heart. Madcap rhymes and zany illustrations will tickle kids' funny bones, while a book within a book drives home a final twist.
