Lunchbox and the Aliens

183 pp. | Holt | October, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-7995-5 $16.95
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Kevan Atteberry. A basset hound named Lunchbox is abducted by aliens. He is accidentally made smart(er) and enlisted to help replenish their food supply--technologically processed garbage called froonga. Lunchbox's owner, Nate, helps, but their froonga production is hindered by a corrupt politician. Readers who hang in through the slow beginning (accompanied by simplistic spot illustrations) will be rewarded with a fast-paced, suspenseful ending.
