Description

Most of the time, Pickles’s Grannie Annie does ordinary grandmotherly things. But lately, when she is in the middle of creating recipes from a special cookbook, strange events occur. The situation becomes even more bizarre when Pickles and Grannie are watching television, waiting for the apple pies to finish baking. Soon, the television goes fuzzy, and a man appears. He calls himself Lieutenant Spartan, and he’s from the Intergalactic Nutrition Agency. There’s a crisis on Planet Fuji, and only Grannie and Pickles can help. With Grannie’s kitchen as the portal, the two are whisked off to Planet Fuji, whose existence relies on its orchards and its production of apples. But something has gone awry: some trees are dying, others are producing less fruit, the apples are less flavorful, and the nutritional value of the apples is decreasing. Grannie and Pickles must discover the cause and a find solution to restore the health of Fuji’s apples to ensure the planet’s survival.
