Illustrated by Greg Pizzoli
When the Lady is mad at Jack, she decides to send him and Rex on a one-way trip to outer space.

After an alien chase and some snacks, Jack and Rex get blasted home to Earth. But will the Lady take naughty Jack back?
“Winning.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Barnett makes creative use of a limited and largely decodable vocabulary for comedic effect, which invites beginners to read with expression and confidence. Pizzoli’s illustrations, full of bold outlines and saturated colors, amplify the energy and dynamism in each story line. The text and illustrations work in tandem, sharing the weight of the narrative and blurring the lines between the picture book and easy reader genres while conforming to the physical specifications of the latter. his series promises an energetic romp through the good, the bad, and the bunny.”
