Blast off on the biggest micro-adventure yet with the popular Project X characters Max, Cat, Ant and Tiger and their new robot micro-friend, Eight. Carefully levelled and highly motivating, this book is ideal for independent reading. The Excelsa is running low on holotanium. Without it, the micro-friends might not make it back to Earth. They take a detour to Planet Ashriss to try and find some more. On landing, Tiger's watch malfunctions and he ends up growing to giant size! Max, Cat and Ant meet some insect-like Ashrians, who tell the children that their holotanium source has been blocked. Giant Tiger manages to fix the problem ... but is then captured by Badlaw and his Krools. Together, the Ashrians and the children have to face Badlaw and carry out a daring rescue attempt. This book also contains notes on the inside front and back covers that highlight challenge words, prompt questions and give a follow-up activity to support children in their reading and comprehension skills.

Project X is a reading programme that has been developed based on research into what will really hook boys into reading and make them love books. It includes fiction and non-fiction, exciting adventure stories, lots of gadgets, and 21st-century illustrations.Project X Alien Adventures uses a phonics approach to reading. All books are fully decodable: the series follows a progressive systematic synthetic phonics structure, which correlates to Letters and Sounds Phases 1 to 6. Inside cover notes in every book give question prompts and points for discussion, highlight phonic practice words, point out the challenge words, and give additional activities that children can do with their peers. The scheme is carefully structured and aimed at learning readers from Reception through to Year 4, using the book band scheme and covering levels lilac through to grey.
