Harvey Drew and the Binmen from Outer Space

Harvey Drew is an ordinary boy with a normal obsession with outer space. When he is suddenly and unknowingly teleported aboard the Toxic Spew, an intergalactic garbage spaceship, he finds himself in a most unusual situation. The Toxic Spew is in need of a captain and so Harvey finds himself in command of a rabble and heading for danger with a hazardous cargo. With quick wits, drawing on his (limited) experience of captaining the Highford All Stars and a bit of luck, a safe and happy ending is had by all. This is a fast paced space adventure with its tongue firmly in its cheek. Readers will be amused by the jokey tone of the narrator, the slapstick behaviour of the crew and the disgusting descriptions of space rubbish (not for the squeamish). A fun read for boys and girls alike.
