Middle School Monday: Klawde: Evil Alien Warlord Cat by Johnny Marciano and Emily Chenoweth

This illustrated novel begins on the planet Lyttrboks, which is a planet of intelligent cats who have names like Flooffee-Fyr, General Ffangg, and Lord High Emperor Wyss-Kuzz. Wyss-Kuzz has just been overthrown, and his punishment is being exiled to the planet Earth. There he meets a boy named Raj, who is also feeling displaced because he was just forced to move from Brooklyn to Oregon (also known as the middle of nowhere). Wyss-Kuzz is renamed Klawde by his human family, which is just one of the embarrassing parts of dealing with such primitive beings. He doesn’t even want to discuss what they expected him to do in that box filled with sand!

Give this book to older kids and younger teens who enjoy fast and funny science fiction stories, cats, and characters with hilarious names.
