Description
He came from the stars -- and sixth grade will never be the same!
How would you feel if the new kid in your class was from another planet?
How would you feel if you were that new kid -- the one from the other planet?
Tim Tomkins (from Earth) and Pleskit Meenom (from the planet Hevi-Hevi) answer those questions in this hilarious new alien adventure from the author of My Teacher is an Alien and Aliens Ate My Homework, telling their stories in alternating chapters that let us see aliens through the eyes of an Earthling -- and Earthlings through the eyes of an alien!
This wildly inventive tale from the master of alien humor, Bruce Coville, seamlessly weaves comedy, adventure, and social satire in a tale that takes the idea of multiculturalism to a whole new dimension.
