Scarlet: Defender of the Universe

Discover the epic new book and have the adventure of a lifetime!

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, scroll to the ‘10 facts about pandas‘ page, because you are a panda, and this is not a book for pandas.

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

A cartoon girl with red hair, a black and white T-shirt, and a star necklace smiles and raises her hand. Text lists fun facts about Scarlet: she’s imaginative, has a floating-boy issue, and is not the Defender of the Universe.

Scarlet only replies to the Beano ad for Defender of the Universe to prove to her annoying younger brother it’s not a real thing – so she’s shocked when she actually gets the job!

Now responsible for the galaxy’s safety, she teams up with co-Defender Jasper, Pom-Pom the cutest alien ever, and Bot, the smartest AI robot, on a whirlwind adventure to save Earth from an alien species determined on destruction… who will do anything for a warm cup of hot chocolate.

Meet the Co-Defenders!

A cartoon boy with spiky brown hair hovers mid-air, smiling. Text below lists facts: his name is Jasper, he’s silly, the Defender of the Universe, owns a pink pet schmuffle named Scarlet, and is also an alien.

A pink, fluffy creature with big eyes floats on a pink background. Text describes Pom-Pom, an adorable pet with powerful schmuffle eyes and eternal life. The Scarlet: Defender of the Universe logo shines at the top, making Pom-Pom truly delightful and cute.

A cartoonish robot egg with a sad face floats in space. The card reads: BOT. Less of a person and more of an egg, but definitely more of a universe defender. Programmed to obey your command, Bot has analysed over 3.2 million escape plans—and counting.

Memory master!
