Publisher's Synopsis
Surviving middle school is tough. Surviving it in space? That's a whole new galaxy of trouble!
For Splattyk "Splat" Ploopnik, surviving middle school is hard enough-now imagine it on the distant planet of Zogwizzle-9, where jetpacks misfire, school bullies sabotage your every move, and the science fair can literally blow up in your face! Splat has one dream: to win a scholarship to the elite Zogwizzle-9 Space Cadet Academy. But between his unreliable jetpack, a school principal who seems determined to catch him in the act of causing chaos, and Gronk Stompclaw-the biggest bully in the galaxy-things aren't exactly going according to plan. With the help of his quirky best friends, an unpredictable alien pet named Blorpnozzle, and a whole lot of duct tape, Splat embarks on a wild adventure filled with hilarious disasters, epic challenges, and one final chance to prove he's more than just a walking catastrophe. Can Splat outsmart Gronk, impress the teachers, and survive the chaos of middle school on Zogwizzle-9? Or will he crash and burn-again? Cadet Splat is a laugh-out-loud, out-of-this-world adventure that will keep readers ages 9-12 turning pages as they root for Splat on his quest to reach the stars-without getting grounded first!
