The oddballs of Team Pom are back for another action-packed romp through Queens – this time with even more hilarious shenanigans, sticky situations, and hairy villains in bowler hats.

It’s the summer break in Shadyside, Queens, and the team have continued their investigation into the mysterious, shady organisation called C.A.O.S, hoping to discover what evil deeds its sinister boss Steve plans to dish out next.

Seeking a bit of quiet from their busy case, the trio head to the American Museum of Natural history to check in with Ruby’s mother, an ornithologist heading up research on the remains of the very last dodo, currently frozen and kept under lock and key… But not for long! After the precious remains are squirrelled away by Steve’s two crafty rodent minions, Team Pom are suddenly thrown into the middle of C.A.O.S's latest dastardly scheme!

Can they foil Steve’s plans in time to save the entire city? Can peanut butter really save the day? Or will the poor citizens of New York City suffer a feathery fate?
