On a field trip, fourth grader Willy Maykit finds himself marooned on a distant planet when the spaceship conveying his class leaves without him. Willy, classmate Cindy, and alien Norp must hold off the voracious monsters that populate Planet Ed until they can get home. Humor and silliness reign, and plot drives the bus in this entertaining read featuring cartoony black-and-white illustrations.
