Gloria is willing to do anything to top the unofficial missions leaderboard at the Cosmic Cadet Academy. If only she can avoid triggering a universe-wide robot apocalypse . . .

In Cosmic Cadets and the Bubblegum Bots, follow intergalactic besties Gloria and Razz on their most dangerous mission yet. Packed with jokes from the hilarious Ryan Crawford and out-of-this-world illustrations from Rochelle Falconer, this is a perfect young middle-grade adventure read.

Gloria and Razz are one mission away from officially being leaders of the unofficial leaderboard at the Cosmic Cadet Academy. All they need to do is survive a trip to the extremely safe and not-at-all dangerous Bubblyon Blasters Bubblegum Factory. Then avoid getting trapped forever in a prison made of gum and defeat their shiny evil robot nemesis. What could possibly go wrong? If Gloria and Razz do find a way out of this seriously sticky situation, they might just prevent a cosmic robot apocalypse. Or be the cause of one!
