K-3I Can Read Book series.
Bringing a touch of science fiction to the easy-reader crowd, Cushman introduces a new character, Space Cat, and his sidekick, a robot named Earl. After landing on a strange planet, Space Cat needs fuel to fly home and King Zorp won't give him any, until Earl's gluey noodles save the day. The book is mildly amusing, with illustrations reminiscent of 1960s TV cartoons.
