Dear Librarians,

When the Binky Adventure series came to an end, I just knew I had to keep Binky and friends busy somehow. Thankfully, Sergeant Fluffy Vandermere came to the rescue, assembling his ragtag army called Pets of the Universe Ready for Space Travel (P.U.R.S.T.) — including Binky — and a new adventure was born!

Fluffy's number-one job is protecting the world from alien invasion (aka bugs), and he takes his responsibility very seriously. When the unthinkable happens and headquarters is attacked, Fluffy sets out on a daring solo mission to defeat the intruders.

Binky the Space Cat, the first book in the Binky Adventure series, received starred reviews from School Library Journal and Kirkus Reviews, praising its slapstick humor. Like Binky, FLUFFY STRIKES BACK is an easy-to-read graphic novel, perfect for emergent readers, with sound effects, secret-agents elements and litter box-humor adding to the fun.
