Blast off on an incredible independent reading journey!

Carefully levelled and highly motivating, these books are ideal for independent reading.The micro-friends arrive on Planet Exis, but a space villain called Badlaw is waiting for them! Now Nok needs the friends' help to defeat Badlaw and save the planet. Find out what happens in Planet Exis. In Attack of the Buzzles, our heroes are chased by a swarm of scary-looking insects will they be able to get away? Nok leads the micro-friends to his home to find his parents, the King and Queen of Exis, but the palace is deserted. Find out what's happened to them in The Empty Palace. In Battle with the Beast, the mysterious Arkon explains to Max, Cat, Ant, Tiger and Nok about the mission that they must go on but first they must face a giant energy beast! Nok loses the precious mission map in Nurp Stampede. Find out if the micro-friends can get it back before they are spotted by Badlaw's Krools. In The Trap, Nok is caught in a trap set by the Krools. Find out if Max, Cat, Ant, Tiger and Seven can save him in time. Each book comes with notes on the inside front and back covers for teachers, TAs and parents/carers, which give question prompts and points for discussion, challenge words, and additional activities that children can do.

Project X Alien Adventures provides an excellent addition to our reading provision. It is an outstanding resource because the children love the characters and they become completely absorbed in the story. The gadgets, creatures and strange worlds capture their imagination and interest. When children are so engaged, it makes their capacity to learn so much greater. * Martin Fenton, Headteacher - Greenhill Primary School, Wakefield *
With the detailed inside cover notes - with steps for reading before, during and after the story - they help the Teaching Assistant with minimal support from the teacher. Also helps the parents with reading at home with their child. * Miss Stephanie Cairns, Assistant Headteacher - Harrowgate Hill Primary School, Darlington *
The books and materials appeal to both boys and girls but they include content that particularly motivates boys to read which definitely supports the teacher in class. Alien Adventures engages children and we have seen them make sustained progress in their reading development. * Stephanie James, Year 1 Teacher - Churwell Primary School, Leeds *
