An intergalactic adventure involving space pirates, a lucky parrot and a moon made of cheese. When the ashes of ten-year-old Harrison's grandad are sent into space, the consequences spell disaster for a crew of space pirates and if Harrison can't find their lucky parrot, he must walk the plank into a BLACK HOLE.

HELP! ALIEN PIRATES STOLE MY GRANDAD! is an intergalactic adventure that asks a lot of BIG questions:

* Why is Harrison Brown pretending to be the Earthling Prime Minister?

* Who are the Cheddar Moon pirates and where's their lucky parrot?

* What happens when you fire your dead grandpa's ashes into space?

One teensy little fib plunges foolhardy ten-year-old Harrison headfirst into a daft and dangerous lunar parrot search. He'll be plundering from pirates, wrangling space cows and even coming face-to-face with a ghost captain. But if he can't find the pirates' missing parrot by bedtime, he'll be forced to walk the plank... into the BLACK HOLE.
