As AstroWolf, LaserShark, SmartHawk, and StinkBug blast off, they know that they’re the Earth’s last hope. Their first stop is the plant planet. But while at first it seems like a nice place to live, the Astronuts quickly discover that the plants aren’t about to give up their world without a fight. Filled with quirky humor and bright, bold illustrations. Your young readers will laugh out loud at the Astronuts and their hijinks, even as they discover new facts about ecology and the science of plants. Ages 7-9. 212pp.

Miles ★★★★★

We picked it up for a long flight and didn't hear a peep from the kids until touchdown—the storyline about finding a new planet really pulled them in. The mix of four distinct characters with their own quirks kept things lively, and the pacing felt just right for younger readers.

Eli Q. ★★★★★

My kids finished this in one sitting and immediately asked for the next installment—the four-animal crew dynamic is genuinely funny, and the space-flora worldbuilding kept even me turning pages. The chapter length is perfect for reluctant readers around ages 8-10.

Emma I. ★★★★★

The premise of four animals hunting for a new planet hooked me immediately, and the way their distinct personalities clash on the page kept me turning it well past bedtime. My son's already asking to read the next chapter out loud together.
