My kids loved this book so much my husband and I read it twice. My kids enjoyed the premise of this book and they said they hope to read another bloop book because the book ended on a cliffhanger.

The story is cute and funny, and the illustrations are very colorful and fun. People who enjoyed this would probably also like [b:Invasion of the Unicorns|56824087|Invasion of the Unicorns|David Biedrzycki|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1615852460l/56824087._SX50_.jpg|88839743], and vice versa.

A very cute book about an alien dog who visits earth. It has a very good ending and would be good for lower elementary read aloud.

Bloop has been preparing to be the next ruler of Planet XYZ, but he's just made too many bloopers. So, the emperor sends him to earth with the promise that if he can conquer earth, then Bloop will be ready to assume the role of emperor when he returns. Bloop (who looks like a dog with antennae) comes to earth and immediately realizes who's in charge: the dogs!! After all, humans feed them, walk them, clean up after them, and bow down to them. Bloop eventually finds himself part of a human family and must decide if the emperor-ship is worth giving up his earthly family.

A little on the long side, this is still a fun group read aloud for ages 4-8.
