STORY:  the Bumblesnouts are gentle aliens who travel all the way from outer space in a funny old spaceship to show humans how to take better care of their planet. They are horrified when they are attacked by bullies and sprayed by an over-zealous cleaner, threatened by game hunters, tree 'Fellas' and gangsters – all behaving very badly indeed.  But these earthlings get their comeuppance, and learn their lesson as it appears.
