Professor Sponge brings his grandchildren, Max and Lucy, and their dog, Soap, on a journey to a mysterious planet, but is unaware that the planet is haunted by ghostly, shape-changing holographic aliens.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
The creators of A Night in the Dinosaur Graveyard offer more holographic encounters, this time in an outer-space setting. However, in light of Spielbergian adventures and similar extraterrestrial excursions, Wood's simplistic story may strike the target audience as pretty tame stuff. Professor Sponge, eager to try out his homemade rocket, takes his grandchildren Max and Lucy (Lucy's dog, Soap, is a stowaway) for "a day trip to outer space." But when Soap's tail accidentally yanks a control lever, the crew lands on a mysterious planet where they encounter (gasp!) aliens. The holograms, credited to the Templar Company, are the chief attraction; even so, the majority of them, depicting alien ghosts, are repetitious. While the design includes a particularly effective diecut page, the illustrations themselves are merely serviceable. Ages 5-8.

Journey to Haunted Planet Fascinates Kids,
By A Customer
This review is from: Journey to the Haunted Planet: An Interstellar Adventure With 12 Cosmic Holograms (Hardcover)
The best thing about Journey to the Haunted Planet is the 12 silvery holograms of aliens within the book. The holograms hold the odd faces of aliens and moon-like craters and surfaces. While the story is a little simplistic, the holograms will fascinate kids of all ages, including parents. I'd especially recommend the book for boys.
