Toys in Space
Toys in Space | Mini Grey
5 posts | 3 read
That summer night, the toys were left outside. . . . For the very first time, the Wonderdoll, the helpful wind-up robot, the thoughtful green dinosaur, and the rest of their plucky gang lie in the grass, gazing up at the stars. But one star seems brighter than the rest. As it grows bigger and bigger, the toys realize it may not be a star at all! Soon they're venturing into the unknown, traveling by spaceship, where they meet a lonely alien in need of help, and some friends. From ever-inventive, award-winning author-illustrator Mini Grey comes a hilarious and heartfelt new adventure: a motley group of toys left outside in the garden become true friends and brave heroes--in space!

“It looked carefully at the toys. None of the toys was the one it was looking for. The hoctopize showed the toys a picture of its Cuddles who was lost.”

This is a very cute story that ties supernatural elements of aliens and UFO‘s into a childrens book. The toys experience outer space for the first time and encounter an alien.

This is a story about a bunch of toys that get left outside overnight, and they see the stars and space for the first time. They then see a spaceship coming down and it sucks the toys up into it. The “hoctopize” alien comes out looking upset and does not see the toy it was looking for. They all have a party in space and convince hoctopize to let all of the toys go back home.

Seeing this boy grow a love for books even before he can read the words just makes me swell with pride and excitement! Thus us Cashel (age 4) reading "Toys in Space" to baby brother Corban on our car drive to a camping adventure. First stop was the library!
