Revue de presse

First contact between earth and other intelligent life-forms - is it a big leap for mankind or is it just a hoax? As the sceptical human race is thrust into reality by receiving a n invitation to the 5000th Junior Galactic Games unsuspecting Oliver Togg is picked to represent the human race as one of the competitors. --Waterstone's Ayr Branch

An original take on the space story theme with a warm-hearted and loveable main character. Young Oliver's new experiences in this funny story show that it isn't always winning the race that matters. --Waterstone's Ayr Branch

I really enjoyed this book, and I never wanted it to end. I think it is a fantastic read, and I would recommend it to anybody. --Amy Jones, Stray's of Newark reviewer, aged 12
