Jaden and his friends work together to solve a tricky problem and show that even scary creatures deserve our sympathy and care.""My son (5 yr old) was so excited to get this book. He liked 'the Ladeks, his coat, the 3 minute dance party and the WHOLE book!' Jaden is a cool kid and a great problem solver. I love his creativity, his ability to work as a team, recognition of others' strengths and his super supportive family (I only wish my sister was THAT kind growing up!). The characters are warm and interconnect well. Cleverly written and entertaining with great illustrations. And I LOVE the Doctor Who references! We are already looking forward to the next episode!"
