I'm an Alien and I Want to Go Home!

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Marty Kelley. Sixth grader Daniel Kendal feels like an outsider at home and school. When his nasty older sister convinces him he's really an abandoned alien, he enlists his two misfit friends to help him get home. A few two-dimensional characters and an abundance of flatulence scenes won't lessen the appeal. The zany, unexpected ending ties things up quickly and neatly.
