Emergency Landing On 17a Milky Way

Children & Young Adult, Children's Books, Children's Books Age 10+, Children's Books Friends / Family, Children's Books Adventure / Crime

Two aliens, Winston and Ibu, are on the run from their teacher. When they’re forced to make an emergency landing, they find themselves on the stupidest planet in the entire universe – Planet Earth! To make matters worse, they crash-land on 17a Milky Way – slap bang in the middle of a housing estate! The brothers’ humanoid disguise isn’t entirely convincing and their plight isn’t helped when they attempt to hide their spaceship between two of the semi-detached houses without stopping to think things through properly.


There’s only one person who’s really happy in the ensuing mayhem – Linus from next door. For this reserved and reclusive boy, meeting offbeat Winston marks the start of a beautiful friendship that means he finally finds his rightful “home” on Milky Way.

Imaginative, packed with hilarious scenes - extraterrestrially funny!
