In this companion novel to Akiko on the Planet Smoo, fourth-grade earthling Akiko and her odd team are on a journey to save the kidnapped Prince Froptoppit from the evil Alia Rellapor.

With no maps available, the team’s best hope is to find Queen Pwip of the Sprubly Islands, a clairvoyant, who will be able to point them in the right direction.
