ts night. Sally is with her uncle Coco

the clown in his circus motorhome.
They are having dinner. Suddenly they
hear a strange noise WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

OH! Its a SPACESHIP!

Whats

I dont

Sally and Coco run outside.

A small ET and a robot are coming down
the stairs of the spaceship.

My name is Sally
and this is my uncle,
Coco the clown.

Hello.
My name is PB3
and this is my robot,
Robin.

PB3 and Robin are very surprised.

On Planet P3 they dont have animals,
or motorhomes or even many different colours
(they only have black, grey, green and white).

Look at
those funny
houses!

Coco and Sally invite PB3 and Robin to have

a cup of tea.
