Booklist - 11/01/2024 Hugo knows just the thing to get Mami for her birthday: weird space rocks! Hugo and his buddy, Dino, blast off into a very big, very weird outer space only to crash land on a planet, where a magic power stone—the stone that magically powers the planet, naturally—has disappeared. Using his super magic, Hugo transforms into a space tiger and uses his space-tiger vision to search for clues (as he explains to Dino, to solve a mystery first one must find three clues). After a series of misadventures, the power stone is recovered, weird space rocks are collected, and the two return to Earth on a passing asteroid. This quick and silly story impeccably follows the logic used by excited kids telling their best story ever. The loose, rubbery art handily uses different colored speech bubbles to help readers distinguish between the speakers. The main story is followed by a brief vignette about Hugo and the space tiger finding the best way to fall asleep. A terrific use of a controlled vocabulary that never feels controlled. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
