From the Publisher:
It's been a long trip, and Commander Toad and the Star Warts crew are bored silly. But then the alarm goes off, and suddenly the Star Warts is being boarded by Commander Salamander, Scourge of the Skies and Goon of the Galaxies. Can Commander Toad and his crew escape before they're forced to play Hop the Plank? "Any fans of Star Wars, Star Trek, or other books in this series will enjoy Yolen's snappy new space adventures.... It's all wild and raucous and sometimes very silly, but it's just these qualities that will keep new readers, especially boys, going". -- Booklist |

Commander Toad and the rest of his crew are in grave danger when a band of wily space pirates captures their space craft. Will the crew of the "Star Warts" be able to rid their ship of these invaders? Four-color and b&w illustrations accompany the text of this beginning reader book.
