Kümmerliches Sonnensystem, 43. Galaxie von rechts, am falschen Ende des Universums: Fluppipi, der Außerirdische mit den vier Köpfen, steckt noch immer auf der Erde fest. Seine Eltern und er haben den dringenden Auftrag, dort ihre Mission zu Ende zu bringen. Sie sollen genügend Erdlinge sammeln, um sie auf ihrem Heimatplaneten erforschen zu können. Als Schuljunge getarnt muss Fluppipi einmal mehr beweisen, dass vier Köpfe im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes besser sind als einer. Denn die Erde wird bedroht: von flauschigen, pinkfarbenen Wesen, die es faustdick hinter ihren plüschigen Ohren haben ...

Flowkwee while helping his dad study Earthlings by disguising himself as a schoolboy, puts together a guide to help other bamboozled aliens get to grippers with this primitve planet and its hideous inhabitants.

Fluppipi ist in einer wichtigen Mission unterwegs: Als Schuljunge verkleidet, reist der Außerirdische auf den blauen Planeten, um mehr über dessen Bewohner zu erfahren. Nie hätte er gedacht, dass es in diesem Universum tatsächlich lebensfähige Wesen mit nur einem Kopf und zwei Glupschern gibt. Ohne Antennen, Lichter, Wirbler oder Winker! Um kein Aufsehen zu erregen, verhält sich Fluppipi erst mal so unauffällig wie möglich. Doch das ist gar nicht so einfach. Erst recht nicht, wenn man keine Ahnung hat, wozu irdische Dinge wie Socken gut sind ...

"Will Flowkwee prove that four heads are better than one and save Earth? Will all the miserable whining Earthlings and the fluffy clouds and chocolate and cheerful worms and cardboard be destroyed? If you are the kind of lazy good for nothing duffer of an Earthling who just puts this book right back on the shelf then you''ll never ever ever ever ever know."--Page 4 of cover.
