Explorer Troop 301 tries to save an exploding planet from a fluffy
bunny and a devious alien in the first book of this funny, highly
illustrated chapter book series based on the award-winning kids'
podcast!
Eight-year-old Finn is the first kid born in space and he spends his
days looking for a new planet to call him with his three best friends
and his robot, Foggy.
He's used to wild, galaxy hopping adventures. But when Explorer Troop
301 gets stuck on a planet that's about to explode, Finn and his friends
will have to face giant aliens, a leader with mind control powers, and
one evil, fluffy bunny rabbit in order to save the planet . . . and
themselves.
Blast off into a brand-new adventure inspired by the popular
award-winning kids' podcast! Like the podcast, the books are sort of
like Scooby-Doo meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer in space. The story
centers on Finn Caspian, an 8-year-old boy aboard The Famous Marlowe 280
Interplanetary Exploratory Space Station. He and his friends Abigail,
Elias, and Vale are Explorers Troop 301, taking off from the Marlowe to
explore uncharted planets, help the occasional alien, and solve a
mystery that threatens to destroy the Marlowe.
The books in this series are for kids ages 7 to 12 looking for a
funny, illustrated story to tear through. They contain no violence, a
little bit of suspense, and some aliens who are real chuckleheads...
