Synopsis

The peaceful world of the Kreechurs turns upside down when a wicked tribe of aliens attacks from a nearby planet. Thumblebottom, the Kreechurs’ chatty bard, becomes an unlikely hero on a daring escape across the galaxy. Nearing starvation, the motley band discovers a small lush planet to call home – in the same solar system as Earth, tucked between Mars and Jupiter. Their enemies, however, are in hot pursuit, and their new world makes a tempting target. How do you solve a planet-sized problem? Find out in this space romp that blends adventure, humor, and science fiction. With full-color illustrations, this inventive book is for young readers ages 7 to 12 who'll enjoy close encounters with the most delightful group of aliens in the known universe.

À propos de l?auteur

My name is Thumblebottom. Allow me to introduce you to the "author" Brian Backus, my only grown-up and quite a project. He exhibits much of the obstinacy of his species, but I am forgiving and permit him to observe and record our benevolent activities for the benefit of all. For a grownup, Brian is a good listener. He does what I say, and respects that each Kreechur is unique. I suspect that comes from having lived in Africa and Papua New Guinea as a child, and then in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. I’m sure he met lots of non-humans, and anyway I like my humans with a nomadic streak. Brian is an evolutionary biologist who went to Harvard. No doubt that's how he explains spending spend time with us to his human friends, but I think he just likes us. He also went to film and art school, and he drew us himself - I watched him! The drawings of us are pretty accurate, except in real life I’m even better looking.
