In the first book of the series, Wigglys and Skypie Visit the Pollution Planet, Wigglys and Skypie have a mission to clean up a dirty, old polluted planet that is dying from all the toxic garbage and poisons in the air. Their trees and flowers are lifeless, their birds don’t sing, their bees don’t buzz, the people and animals are choking, their oceans are filthy with chemicals and their sun doesn’t shine! Wigglys and Skypie help them “go green,” and teach them to be kind and respectful to the environment. They restore their dying planet to a place of beauty and cleanliness, where they will live forever in peace and harmony! GO GREEN!!!!!!
"Skypie was angry and said, 'Mayor Dan,
YOUR PLANET'S A MESS, AND YOU MUST TAKE A STAND !!!!'
'You must make some rules and clean up your act,
This pollution is bad, and this is a fact !!!!'
'Look all around, Look at everything
Your trees are dead and your birds don't sing!'
'The sun doesn't shine, there's not one single ray
Your animals cough, and your children can't play!'"
