Review

When a band of tiny aliens touch down their spaceship inside a human house, they have no idea what they are about to face. Mr. Wuffles the cat promptly ruins their ship as he amuses himself with it. The aliens regroup inside the walls of the house, and once joined by similarly tormented ants, are able to repair their ship, outwit Mr. Wuffles, and escape to freedom. With only one sentence of text, this brightly illustrated book uses a comic-style layout to tell a tale of elaborate planning and adventure. This book is perfect for young children who are not reading on their own yet. It is also an excellent exercise in analyzing and interpreting pictures to discover the unfolding storyline. Highly Recommended. Taylor Wilcox, Centennial Library Intern, Cedarville University
