An author offers his newest title (literally, an attached smaller-format volume set inside the main book) to his family for review. The plot: a man rockets into space then meets and marries a space alien. The big reveal: it's autobiographical. Both volumes, decorated with McNaughton's zany ink and watercolor illustrations, will intrigue and amuse readers.
