'The world will end at ten thirty-six in the morning, on the fourteenth of March this year.'

This is the message aliens send to eleven-year-old nerds Harrison (Aitch), Ally and Mo. How do they send it? Via the magnetic letters on Mo's fridge, of course.

Aitch and Ally aren't sure what to believe, but soon they're in an alien spaceship travelling at lightspeed to Jupiter's icy moon Europa. Mo is worried his mum will be furious that he boarded an alien craft with strangers. And Aitch is not too happy that they've kidnapped his dog.

But maybe the aliens aren't that scary after all? They say they want to save the planet. It's only humans they're not so impressed by ...

The future of the human race might just be in the hands of three nerds and their lazy dog. What could go wrong?

A wild ride that's full of laughs from the bestselling author of My Life as an Alphabet.

Perfect for:

- Reluctant and confident readers aged 8+ seeking a funny, quick, entertaining read

- Young readers who love alien adventures and saving-the-world stories

- Teachers and librarians looking for engaging, comedic reads for upper primary, lower secondary kids
