Akiko and the Journey to Toog (Akiko (Bantam Hardcover)) Book

Akiko to the rescue again! On her way home from school one day, the intrepid fifth grader is picked up in a space ship masquerading as a police car by her alien friends Mr. Beeba, Spuckler, and Gax. Quickly they explain: their friend Poog was recently called back to his planet, Toog, which apparently is in grave danger. But Poog hasn?t returned, and his buddies are concerned. So off they all go, in spite of Akiko?s misgivings: "We were heading to a planet none of us had ever been to before--a place where we were apparently not the least bit welcome--to deal with some sort of terrible threat that we knew absolutely nothing about. It sounded like an excellent recipe for total disaster." But Akiko has faced danger before, and has always made it through in one piece (Akiko and the Intergalactic Zoo , Akiko on the Planet Smoo , etc.). Surely she can save little purple Poog and make it home in time to relieve her replacement robot on Earth before another school day? Mark Crilley?s Japanese anime-inspired Akiko series offers plenty of intergalactic adventure and a spunky, likable heroine who is surprisingly down-to-earth for being so often in outer space.

  • Product Description

    â??Poogâ??s in trouble.â? Just three simple words, but theyâ??re enough to launch fifth-grade Akiko and the rest of her crewâ??Spuckler Boach, Mr. Beeba, and Gaxâ??on their next mission. And it just might be their most important mission yet: To save the planet Toog, home of their good friend Poog.

    Someoneâ??s out to destroy Toog, and only Akiko and the gang can stop them. But first they have to escape from a Toogolian jail cell, zoom through a barrage of exploding drobe mines, and enlist the help of Spucklerâ??s old friend Fluggly Ragstubbleâ??whoâ??s anything but helpful. The clock is ticking and every second counts. Will they win the race against time and save Poogâ??s home planet?
