The merpeople of Ocea are going about their days when a strange pink object lands on their planet. The object turns out to be an alien spacecraft carrying… unicorns.
I was pleasantly surprised by this one. A fun adventure with plenty of humor and action.
Great brightly-colored artwork that adds to the humor.
At the back is a bit about The War of the Worlds, differences between the original and the retelling, visual questions about how information is communicated through the artwork, and a glossary of terms.
Highly entertaining. A fun read that acts as a nice kid-friendly introduction to The War of the Worlds.
