Checking Availibility...Description
Holy fuzzbutt! A new Ashley Spires picture book series, based on the animated TV show Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe.
Binky the space cat is on duty, keeping watch for any aliens (bugs) attempting to breach his space station (house). Wait, there's one (caterpillar) on the windowsill! Hmm, false alarm. It's moving too slowly to be a threat. Except, over the next few days, it gets bigger. And bigger. Then, it builds itself a spaceship (cocoon) and emerges as a colorful flitting alien (butterfly) that - oh, no! - flies directly into the space station! It's time for Binky and his crew (other pets) to contact P.U.R.S.T. (Pets of the Universe Ready for Space Travel) headquarters.
Just like the original early graphic novel series, this TV tie-in series is full of high-camp drama, silly wordplay and delightful physical comedy. Bye Bye, Butterfly is perfect for fans who can't get enough of Binky and his pals!
