Astro
(Shaun Chapman Books Nov. 19, 2013)
A hilarious story about two Mexican corn crickets called Manuel and Jose, and their best friend Astro, a ride-on lawnmower. The crickets and Astro battle a twisted and evil machine bent on the enslavement of both machine and man, and the rest of creation, including bugs and animals of all varieties.
In their adventures Manuel and Jose travel to Africa and then to the United States of America, far from their home country of Mexico, meeting creatures both great and small, to go where no Mexican corn cricket has gone before, their mission, to boldly consume as much cheesecake as they can, and, to drink as much tequila as possible, oh, and to save the world, God help us!
