What are the Bobobobs?

The story is set a long, long time ago. It's about tiny, traveling humanoids called the Bobobobs. They live far away in the universe. One group of Bobobobs, led by Captain Bob Wouter, sets off. They sail in their spaceship, the Bobular Quest. It looks like an old sailing ship with a protective dome.

Their mission is to go to Earth. They want to save humans from scary dinosaurs. On their journey, they meet many different aliens. Some of these aliens are not friendly. The Bobobobs use their special psychic powers. They can become invisible and even teleport. These powers help them on their adventures.

Meet the Bobobobs Characters

• Bob Wouter – He is the kind and calm Captain of the Bobular Quest. He has a wooden leg. His big job is to lead his crew on their journey to Earth.
• Little Wouter (Little Bob) – He is Captain Bob Wouter's son. He is very smart, even if some Bobobobs don't realize it. He is best friends with Fuzz.
• Blush (Blip) – This is Cornelius's pet and friend. He is a floating, fuzzy purple head. He has small arms and big, friendly eyes.
• Cornelius – He is the main astronomer on the Bobular. He is very old with a long white beard. He wears purple clothes and a wizard's hat. He is super wise but often falls asleep. His assistant, Peter, does most of his work.
• Willbur – He is the son of Big Bob, the Bobobobs' leader. He is also Petronella's brother. He is the ship's handyman, but not always very good at it.
• Petronella – She is Big Bob's daughter. She thinks she can tell everyone what to do. She is often mean to others, except her brother Willbur. She always thinks about how beautiful she is (even if she isn't). She is married to A.D.
• A.D. – He is the Bobobobs' architect. He is Petronella's husband and often lets her boss him around. He loves to focus on his work.
• Fritz – He is the ship's cook, and he can be very grumpy. His food is healthy but tastes awful. He gets angry easily, especially with Aunt Agatha. His best friends are Ein & Stein.
• Aunt Agatha – She is like an aunt to everyone. She secretly came aboard to look after her nephew Peter. She quickly became friends with everyone, especially Cornelius. She is a very kind old lady who loves to bake.
• Ein & Stein – They are the Bobular's biologists. They are identical twins and are always together. Their main job is growing "Obus" plants for the crew. They argue a lot but care deeply for each other.
• Peter – He is Cornelius's assistant. He wants to be the chief astronomer one day. He has a lot to learn, and Blip, Cornelius's little friend, doesn't make it easy.
• Doc Bone – He is the Bobular's doctor. He is a bit forgetful. He pays more attention to Nurse Mimi than his patients.
• Nurse Mimi – She is Doc Bone's sweet young nurse. She is always ready to help anyone who needs it, especially Willbur.
• Big Bob – He is the leader of all the Bobobobs. He is also the father of Petronella and Willbur.
