This is the 4th story in the Jasper series. Officer Jasper is on routine patrol at night when he encounters a very frightened crow standing in the street, frantically flapping its wings. When Jasper stops to investigate, the crow points upward just as a flying saucer zips silently across the night sky directly overhead. Officer Jasper alerts headquarters, then he and the crow give chase, pursuing the saucer beyond city limits and into the countryside. The saucer lands in a cornfield and Officer Jasper arrives on scene … without any backup. As he steps out of his patrol car and cautiously approaches the colossal spaceship, a door in the craft suddenly slides open and a ramp silently and simultaneously slides downward to the ground below. A mysterious figure is backlighted in the open doorway, staring down at Jasper. Then it begins to descend the ramp, walking slowly and deliberately toward Jasper. At first Jasper is terrified. Where are his backup officers? But when the strange-looking creature reaches the bottom of the ramp, it shakes hands with Jasper and introduces himself as a Martian! The friendly Martian invites Jasper and the crow on board his spaceship, and he introduces them to his Martian family: his wife, two boys, and a little girl Martain. As Jasper and the Matian visit on board the ship, the mother Martian and three kids go outside to explore the surrounding farm on which they’ve landed. The little girl Martian ends up getting lost just as Jasper’s back-up officers arrive on scene. They all pitch in and search for the lost little girl Martian. Eventually it is the least among them who finds the little girl Martian and brings her back safe and sound. Written in verse with full-page, full-color illustrations by Donny Crank throughout, this highly entertaining story will delight readers and listeners ages 4 and up and keep them on the edge of their seats. This is a story with a subtle Christian message they’ll want to hear over and over again.
