Henry Hobbes's home planet is such a boring place that no one has visited it for a long time. One day, Henry accidentally breaks the pump from his older brother's scooter, and it looks like retribution is at hand... We must save ourselves! Henry decides to escape Omicron by sneaking aboard the starship. And only in outer space does it become clear that the journey can take fifty years. Henry urgently begins to invent a rescue plan. It's easy to come up with a plan, but it's much more difficult to execute it. Very soon, Henry realizes that he will have enough adventures for the rest of his life. You will not only be able to read about these adventures, you will be able to see them thanks to the unsurpassed illustrations of Chris Riddell, one of the creators of the bestselling book "Air Pirates."
