书籍简介

年度最搞笑的童书，出自一位激动人心的儿童小说新人之手！

你坐着舒服吗？你幻想着竹子吗？你的毛是黑白相间的吗？你体型巨大，可爱得让人想抱抱吗？好吧，放下这本书，因为你是一只熊猫，而这本书不是写给熊猫看的。

这是一个关于一个名叫斯嘉丽的女孩的故事。她九岁，就像你九岁一样。如果你不是九岁，那么她更像另一个九岁的人。她有一头红发，就像你一样，除非你的头发是棕色的。她身高127厘米，就像你一样，除非你比她更高或更矮。她最喜欢的颜色是绿色，就像你一样，除非你最喜欢的颜色是灰色，尽管这似乎不太可能。她聪明伶俐，就像你一样。

斯嘉丽回应了比诺杂志背面的宇宙守护者职位广告，只是为了向她那烦人的弟弟证明这根本不是真的……所以当她得知自己得到了这份工作，并肩负起整个银河系的安全时，她有些惊讶。与她的同伴守护者贾斯珀、可爱的外星人波姆波姆，以及有史以来最聪明的人工智能机器人博特一起，斯嘉丽被卷入了一场旋风般的冒险，她要去宇宙的最远端再回来，她的任务是阻止一个为了一杯热巧克力什么都做的外星物种毁灭地球。

《猩红：宇宙的捍卫者》由多蒂·萨顿 (Dotty Sutton) 用黑白两色绘制插图，非常适合《洛基：坏神指南之善人》、《我的兄弟是超级英雄》、《查理变成鸡》和《口香糖先生》的粉丝，它是詹姆斯·戴维斯 (James Davis) 的处女作，极其有趣、令人兴奋且充满动作，是一部中等水平的《银河系漫游指南》。

The funniest book of the year from an incredibly exciting new voice in children’s fiction!

Are you sitting comfortably? Are you fantasising about bamboo? Do you have black and white fur? Are you huge and cute and cuddly-looking? Well, put this book down, because you are a panda, and this is not a book for pandas.

This is a story about a girl called Scarlet. She’s nine years old, just like you, if you’re nine. If you’re not nine, then she’s more like someone else who is nine. She has red hair, just like you, unless your hair is brown. She is 127 centimetres tall, just like you, unless you’re taller or shorter. Her favourite colour is green, just like you, unless your favourite colour is grey, although that seems highly unlikely. And she is as smart as a shiny button, just like you.

Scarlet only responds to the advert at the back of the Beano for the role of Defender of the Universe to prove to her annoying younger brother that it’s not a real thing… so she’s a little surprised to be told that she’s got the job and is now responsible for the safety of the entire galaxy. Along with her co-Defender Jasper, Pom-Pom, the cutest alien in existence, and Bot, the cleverest AI robot that’s ever been invented, Scarlet is thrown into a whirlwind adventure that takes her to the furthest reaches of the cosmos and back again, on a mission to prevent the destruction of planet Earth by an alien species who will do anything for a warm cup of hot chocolate.

Illustrated throughout in black and white by Dotty Sutton, and perfect for fans of Loki: A Bad God’s Guide to Being Good, My Brother is a Superhero, Charlie Changes into a Chicken and Mr Gum, Scarlet: Defender of the Universe is the unbelievably funny, exciting, and action-packed debut by James Davis – a middle-grade Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
