What follows is a fun chaotic race to be the first and I loved that we met more couples/more space agencies. I loved their names, they made me laugh (and some made me hungry). I did think it was a bit weird how fast everything happened. I mean, time didn’t seem to go that fast, so for my feeling it was just days. But it is probably months because haha, you just cannot make a good spaceship in a day or so. Plus, of course you also have to wait for the right time. Because Mars/Earth need to be on one line and blabla bla. Once in a millennia Abrorea begins anew, and as a guiding spirit you’ll oversee the growth of this realm into a new and prosperous ecosystem. Four out of five stars due to the fact that the book has the flaws of the cinematic counterparts made in the 80s and 90s. Brutal and grim Russians who inexplicably alternate between rage and amiability may be a reflection on how any human interaction and perception of others may be skewed when each participant considers the other ultimately hostile and incomprehensible.

I loved following the race in space and I loved seeing what all the cats did. From science experiments (dancing fish which we also got to see between the chapters) and figuring out how everything works. All in all, I am happy they added this book and the sixth. I am a bit worried about reading the 6th book without the rest, but I also cannot wait. XD I would recommend this book and I think everyone will enjoy the race! I think the messages here are don't try to do everything yourself and don't be afraid to ask for help. Good messages!

The cards in Tinderblox Night are harder to complete that the base game, making this a great version for those wanting a bigger challenge! This straightforward story focuses on the team of Cat-Astronauts touring the cat community accepting awards and speaking about science based on the celebrity gained from their successful mission to the Moon. They are starting to get bored and the book effectively communicates boredom through their squabbling, conversations about food, etc., but soon enough the action quadruples with the announcement of a competition to reach Mars. In the third book in the CatStronauts graphic novel series, your favorite elite team of cat astronauts is a member short--one of the team has quit! In the fifth book in the CatStronauts graphic novel series, Pom Pom pushes her experiments to the limit on the International Space Station, while the cats at Mission Control take a much needed break. What could possibly go wrong? A side note: this volume made me realize that I’d made some character design assumptions that weren’t necessarily true. For example, cats whose eyes were drawn so that they had eyelashes were female, while cats whose eyes were just dots were male, meaning that all the CatStronauts were male. Or so I thought. I don’t know if pronouns were used in the first volume and I just missed them, but the second volume definitely referred to Pom Pom using she/her pronouns.

This is the easiest version to play, so if you're looking for something to play as a family, Tinderblox Day is for you. Tinderblox Night is a limited edition of Tinderblox, that is only available directly from Alley Cat Games. Captain the ship alone or with friends as a team of 2-4 and become the crew of a spaceship that must hold together in the face of enemy fire - teamwork is essential for success! I dunno guys, I loved this one even more than the first one! I'm pretty sure it's because I'm a total sap, and when all the teams start working together, even the Cosmocats, who have totally been made out to be the bad guys of the story up until that point, I was all, "uh-huuuuuu" *sob* *sob* *tears of joy*. Plus, Uma and Yogi of Cookie? So adorbs!!! Book Genre: Animals, Cats, Childrens, Comics, Graphic Novels, Humor, Middle Grade, Science Fiction, Sequential ArtIn the sequel to CatStronauts: Mission Moon, your favorite elite group of cat astronauts are thrust into the space-race of the century! The stories are entertaining and humorous, but just don't have the charm we found in Binky's stories. Perhaps it's because our girls are older than the target audience for these books, but they weren't overly enamored of them. But around the world, other cat space programs are watching–in particular the CosmoCats, the first cats to go to space! With national pride and scientific research on the line, the world’s space programs rush to be the first cats to Mars, and the CatStronauts are starting months behind! Can they catch up and prove their first mission was no fluke? Read with my 2-year old son. Rough start, but strong finish! He's asked to read the third one, so we'll see how that goes! The numerous space-based acronyms are funny, but for someone like me who has lived in acronym hell (AKA the military) for a couple of decades, it got a bit tiresome. I did, however, appreciate that the teams include male and female cat space explorers.

Jump in and play instantly without learning complicated controls - anyone can be a Catastronaut! However, not everybody can survive the challenges of space... When reading this book I was thinking of space disaster movies and how the plot lines usually present a combination of the epic pressure of defending the national/ all-human pride while also exploring some personal drama of one or two main characters. Race to Mars creates a world much in the same way as those movies: characters are sketched out enough to gain some development, impending problems and play on which characters know about them create layers of development that hold us in suspense. Cat astronauts exploring space. They were racing to Mars. Their ship broke and Cat-stro-bot came to Mars to save them. Yogi and Uma from COOKIE have just finished the module for the new space garden on the intenational space station. The CatStronauts are going to install it while performing some maintenance on the space station. Their project goes haywire when Pom Pom takes on too many experiments. The space garden becomes overcome with weeds. Trying to fix it leads to another even worse problem that is life threatening to the CatStronauts.Emerson wanted me to read this because he wanted me to get his jokes. I like the story of this one better than the Moon book - there's more of a sense of tension and overall plot. In the end, though, this turned out to be a story about learning to work together. The supposed villains really weren’t.I loved seeing Pom Pom and Gemelli bonding over their shared love of science, and it was kind of nice to see that even the oh-so-serious Major Meowser wasn’t infallible. I was also glad that Cat-Stro-Bot got to have a role in this story too, although its part in the story became a little chaotic and confusing near the end. Fresh off of their heroic mission to save the world, the CatStronauts–Major Meowser, Pom Pom, Blanket and Waffles–are taking a well deserved victory lap. Parades and fancy awards dinners are the new norm!

CatStronauts: Digital Disaster by Drew Brockington - Waterstones

Fresh off of their heroic mission to save the world, the CatStronauts--Major Meowser, Pom Pom, Blanket and Waff... I discovered the first two books at our local library, and considering how much we enjoyed reading the saga of Binky the Space Cat by Ashley Spires, I thought this might be another hit with our girls. As the Commander of a team of Catstronauts, you’ll take on fast-paced missions to visit planets across the solar system and rescue poor helpless kittens! IN this book we continue the story of the last book, we see how our Catstronauts are having all the parties, all the foods, all the awards, and more. And that people, sorry cats, are jealous of that! Oh yes. And so a fight to Mars comes to the idea and I loved it! OK, I didn’t love those two cats that much (attitude and mean) but I did love the idea of going to Mars. Those award ceremonies got pretty dang boring ya know (and apparently not just for me but for our cats as well).Neither the story nor the illustrations get bogged down in technical info about space travel or science, it stays within the interest-level, reading level, and scientific framing that will most likely make readers in 2nd-4th grade feel comfortable.
