==Plot==
In the late 21st Century, Earth is overcrowded and polluted. An alien race from the Dark Star Solar System called "The Wipers," who look human, start to colonize the planet and go about destroying communication and data technology. In 2117, humans start to evacuate the planet for a place called the White Crystal Solar System. In 2123, the last of the humans are getting ready to evacuate. Meanwhile, a group of librarians, led by Ms. Bookhart, have built an underground library to protect all human knowledge from the Wipers. While they are finishing up before they leave for the evacuation site they discover that one book, the third volume of "The History of Wipers on Earth," is missing. Desperate to find that book, Ms. Bookhart drives the bookmobile to the house of the last person who borrowed that book to see if he forgot to return it. When she arrives she discovers a Wiper is there destroying everything. On her way to the evacuation site the bookmobile stalls. As she is looking for tools to fix the vehicle, a being who calls himself "The Universal Being" appears and puts her in a deep sleep. The other librarians go to the evacuation site and are sad to leave without Ms. Bookhart, not knowing what happened to her or the missing book.
100 years later, another alien race called "The Users" from the Alpha-Centauri Solar System, who also look human, have set up a communication base on Earth. Under the guidance of Tesla, a group of children Users try to learn about human knowledge as much as possible in order to find a way to defeat the Wipers. Two Users named Abakas and Aphos, who are grandchildren of Tesla, find two books, Cinderella and the third volume of The History of the Wipers on Earth, and try to figure out their purpose. Meanwhile, two other Users find a sign that says "Bookmobile Stops Here." When they learn a bookmobile is a traveling library, which has many books, Abakas and Aphose along with two other friends, Varian and Lidar, leave the base and search for the bookmobile in order to get more books. When they find it, they are surprised to find Ms. Bookhart inside asleep, since it known that all humans left the planet. The Universal Being appears again and gives them a clue how to wake Ms. Bookhart who will teach about the books and how to use the library. Figuring out one part of the clue, Abakas starts to read a section of "The Story of the Amulet," which wakes up Ms. Bookhart. She then takes the children to the underground library to hide from the Wipers, only to discover its a wreck. While the children are helping her clean up, she teaches them more about books and how the library is organized.
Meanwhile, the Wipers, led by Chief Humbuckler, put a magnetic shield around the User base, which prevents anyone from entering or leaving. They destroy other User bases, but only Colonel Holon, Abakas' and Aphos' father, survives. While the children are learning about the library, they find ways to help Colonel Holon survive by eating Watermelon, find his way to the library, destroy the shield around the base, Wiper superstition of horses, and how to defeat the Wipers and communicate with the humans that it is safe to come home.
