I really like this book because it's very funny. My favourite character is Janet. My favourite quote is: "Never, never play with the smoos and never, never play with the smeds."

I love this books especially the purple baby!
Chief Rip Bertrand 24.08.2023
This book is fiction. I liked Janet the Smoo because she took Bill the Smed to space and then came back home to their planet and had a child which was PURPLE, as red and blue make purple. I would recommend this to a friend because they can see what other planets all the Smeds and Smoos went too
