What is When Angus Met Alvin about?
Angus is a gentle alien who enjoys tending his space garden in peace and quiet. Everything changes when Alvin crash-lands on his lawn. Loud, boastful and determined to show off his special space skills, Alvin soon tramples Angus’s flowers and causes chaos. But when one of Alvin’s tricks goes wrong and shrinks him to pin-size, he must rely on Angus for help. Can Alvin learn some manners before he returns to normal—and could these very different aliens become friends?
