| Story |
 One
night Sydney Keets was looking out of his
window, when to his surprise he spotted a flashing spaceship in the
distance. And do you know what, it landed in his back garden!The Little Green Man (Greenie) and a flashing yellow thing (Zoom Zoom) appeared from the spaceship. He introduced himself to the boy and told him that he had come to meet him. |
 He
made his spaceship invisible, so not to attract attention from Skeet's
neighbours and decided to stay a while, with his new friend.That's not the only thing that can turn invisible, as Greenie and Zoom Zoom are invisible to everyone else, plus they can't hear them either (unless they decide to become visible). At the end of each adventure, Greenie gets himself into difficulty (normally falling off something) and says 'Well, Really!". |

 Sydney
is know to his friends as Skeets.I'm a bit worried about Skeets, as he seems to have been left 'home alone', have you seen his parents? (his mother did leave him some food once, but I still haven't seen her!) Luckily for him, Greenie and Zoom Zoom keep him company. |
|
Both Greenie and Zoom Zoom seem to love all the places Skeets takes them and they all have fun along the way. |
|
When they got there, they found out someone had stolen all the Jam Tarts, so everyone on the planet was feeling ill. So Skeets came up with a plan to catch the thief (he's good at that you know). He set a trap by saying that a fresh supply of Jam Tarts had arrived. |
|
So Skeets made himself invisible and waited for the thief. They eventually found out it was the Grand Master Robot, who wanted to takeover the Planet and become King. So they put an end to that plan. |

 Greenie
(as he is know) is invisible to nearly everyone, apart from Skeets. Even
if you can hear him speak, it sounds like gibberish, but luckily Skeets
is able to understand him perfectly.
His name is quite apt, as he has green skin (like all good aliens) and wears green clothes. I think he needs to go on a bit of a diet as he is...ahem...quite rotund. |
|
When needed, 2 antennae can appear out of his head and crackling Magic Rays come from them to help him out with a problem. He is a kind alien and will help anyone that is in trouble. |
| Zoom Zoom |
 He
is Greenie's friend that accompanies him on all his journeys. He looks
like a miniature floating sun and is also invisible to nearly everyone,
apart from Skeets.He can even grow arms if he wants and can turn into a number of different shapes. He needs to use glasses to read. |

He
likes to show Greenie and Zoom Zoom around and take them to as many
places he can. He must have lots of money stashed away, as he's always
paying to visit things, such as football matches and zoos. But he
doesn't have to pay for Greenie and Zoom Zoom, as no one else can see
them.
Once,
Skeets reminded Greenie that he had promised to take him on a trip in
his spaceship, so true to his word, he did. They went to the White
Planet, where the White King plants Jam Tarts, so that Jam Trees can
grow. They use the Jam to keep everyone well, so it's very important.
He
thought it would be easy for Skeets and Zoom Zoom to catch the thief, as
they can become invisible. But on the White Planet, they had no powers
and instead Skeets did. 
He
is very good at talking to animals, as they seem to be able to
understand him.
