It’s a picture book, no text, of the movie, “Alien” but shown from the perspective of Jonesy, the cat in the movie.
Of course, Jonesy doesn’t see the events happening quite the same way the human crew of the Nostromo do, and doesn’t spend all the time with the human crew members, either. He spends plenty of time wandering corridors, doing cat activities, while the humans are exploring alien planets, or hunting the xenomorph. At times Jonesy gets in the way, annoying those humans doing their unimportant things instead of giving pets and pats.
The plot of this book won’t make a whole lot of sense if you haven’t seen the movie, or read the novelization of it.
At first I thought it was humorous that it was presented as a children’s book, but then of course, I remembered I was only 10 when I watched the movie on cable TV, so it’s fitting enough. I guess it was a suitable-for-kids movie.
Artwork-wise, though, in quite a few panels Jonesy is drawn with more of a dog shaped head than cat.
Very cute!… (meer)
