The First Cat in Space Ate Pizza

Book • 2024
In this graphic novel, Mac Barnett and Shawn Harris tell the story of the First Cat in Space, a bold and fearsome beast bioengineered to save the moon from rats.

Alongside the imperious Moon Queen and LOZ 4000, a toenail-clipping robot, the First Cat embarks on a fantastical lunar journey.

The book combines elements of picture books, puppetry, comics, animation, and filmmaking, and features a full-length soundtrack.

It is praised for its absurd humor, vivid illustrations, and themes of friendship and individual purpose.
