"Epic lunacy."
- Kirkus Reviews
"Barnett's signature dry wit and snappy back-and-forths, particularly between the ingenuously sincere Mac and the standoffish Queen, keep the story steadily moving forward; a convoluted historical account of Colonel Blood's attempted robbery...Lowery's cartoony spot art, in black, green, and orange, provides additional historical and cultural information and frequently supports the narrative." - The Horn Book
"With a perfectly absurd premise, dialogue that demands outlandish accents, and a plot that interweaves global history and complete silliness, Barnett royally nails it." - Abby Hanlon, author of the Dory Fantasmagory series
"In full, vivid color, the loose cartoon style exudes an infectious glee, flawlessly matching Barnett’s freewheeling, absurdist humor and plotting." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
★ “Succinct... yet sophisticated.” - Booklist (starred review)
★ “Perfect.” - School Library Journal (starred review)
"Barnett's knack for both quirky situational humor and heartfelt sentiment work in tandem to create a balanced-while still outrageous-early-chapter-book caper. Lowery's frequent cartoony black, yellow, and blue spot illustrations are integral to the narrative, providing clues to eagle-eyed readers and enhancing the humor." - The Horn Book
"The surprisingly earnest themes of friendship and individual purpose combined with the absurd humor should resonate with this audience of readers." - The Horn Book
"This volume continues the nonstop madcap fun; returning readers will not be disappointed, and new ones will quickly become avid followers of the world’s first feline astronaut. Fans of unbridled, melodramatic tomfoolery will be over the moon." - Kirkus Reviews
“A hilarious graphic novel.” - New York Times
"The surprisingly earnest themes of friendship and individual purpose combined with the absurd humor should resonate with this audience of readers." - Horn Book Magazine
"An elaborate and emotionally sincere graphic novel...[a] space-Western whodunit." - Horn Book Magazine
"Ridiculously fun and brilliantly illustrated.” - Dav Pilkey, creator of Dog Man and Captain Underpants
"Funny as a crumpet. (But truly, secretly a hundred times smarter.)" - Jon Scieszka, author of Caldecott Honor The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales and the New York Times bestselling series Frank Einstein
