Toy Story meets Traction Man Is Here! in this picture book that offers a fresh spin on a universal premise- the secret action-adventure story of a toy. When Red, a game piece, is accidentally left out of the game box, nothing-not a hungry robot nor ferocious Lady Flufferton-will stop Red from reaching home. Toy Story meets Traction Man Is Here! in this picture book that offers a fresh spin on a universal premise- the secret action-adventure story of a toy. When Red, a game piece, is accidentally left out of the game box, nothing-not a hungry robot nor ferocious Lady Flufferton-will stop Red from reaching home. The unthinkable has happened! Red is alone on the living room floor, far from the safety of the game closet and best pal, Yellow. After almost being devoured by a ravenous robot (a.k.a. the vacuum cleaner), Red embarks on the dangerous journey home. There will be perils-a transparent cliffside to climb, hanging forests to conquer, and the beastly Lady Flufferton (a.k.a. the family dog) to escape. And there will be setbacks-as when Red is found and carelessly tossed into the junk drawer. But in this action-packed, humorous story, Red learns from mistakes and discovers that with perseverance and resourcefulness nothing is impossible.
