What is The Day That Aliens (Nearly) Ate Our Brains about?
Freddy and Sal are desperate to watch a wrestling match, so they build a homemade device to borrow their neighbour’s television signal. Instead, they intercept a message from Alan, a very grumpy alien who plans to invade Earth and eat human brains. With only ten hours to prepare, the boys find themselves caught up with the police, NASA and world leaders. As chaos spreads across Wolverhampton, Freddy and Sal must work out how to stop the invasion they accidentally started.
