Book overview

Perfect for fans of InvestiGators, this wacky sci-fi adventure series starter features spunky talking animals, hilarious hijinks, and a mystery to uncover.

Project WOOFF was top-secret . . . until now.

Alex Grebert has lived his whole life in the off-grid community of Underland with his nature-loving Aunt Zinnia ever since his parents died unexpectedly. Alex loves his aunt, but it's not easy being a coder in a place where electricity and internet are practically nonexistent. When Alex's best friend Lily Day takes in a stray cat named Fuzzypants, Alex is pulled into an adventure straight out of one of his self-made video games. The cat, whose real name is Professor Fuzzypants, PhD., is a product of Project WOOFF (Weaponized Optimization of Flora/Fauna), a top-secret government project that developed intelligent, speaking animals.

Project WOOFF was supposed to have been shut down a long time ago, but someone is continuing the experiments. Alex and Lily are determined to find out why it all went wrong, especially when Alex discovers that there may be more to his parents' story than he had ever been told.

Featuring illustrations throughout, this short series starter will appeal to the young reluctant reader.
