Bookroo's summary

Red, a spirited 10-year-old, dreams of escaping her foster family. But when a UFO whisks her away, she ends up on a spaceship owned by a treasure-collecting creature. After a crash landing on a deserted planet, Red teams up with Tawee, a small alien, to navigate hostile aliens, dangerous wildlife, and Goose, the grumpy custodian. Can Red find her paradise in this unexpected adventure?

From the publisher

Red’s Planet, an intergalactic graphic novel fantasy series from award-winning cartoonist Eddie Pittman (writer/story artist for Disney’s hit TV series Phineas and Ferb), is a nonstop adventure with a unique cast of characters unlike any you’ve ever seen before. “Fun, sharp, hilarious, and rip-roaringly original!” –Jeff Smith, Bone Meet Red, a quirky, headstrong 10-year-old who longs to live in her own perfect paradise far away from her annoying foster family. But when a UFO mistakenly kidnaps her, Red finds herself farther away than she could have possibly imagined–across the galaxy and aboard an enormous spaceship owned by the Aquilari, an ancient creature with a taste for rare and unusual treasures. Before Red can be discovered as a stowaway, the great ship crashes on a small deserted planet, leaving her marooned with a menagerie of misfit aliens. With her newfound friend, a small gray alien named Tawee, Red must find a way to survive the hostile castaways, evade the ravenous wildlife, and contend with Goose, the planet’s grumpy, felinoid custodian. Surely this can’t be the paradise she’s been hoping for. Fans of Mike Maihack’s Cleopatra in Space and Ben Hatke’s Zita the Spacegirl will embrace Red’s Planet, a boldly illustrated and imaginative series for readers of all ages.
