About the Book
YOUR ALIEN
Written by Tammi Sauer
Illustrated by Goro Fujita
Publisher’s Synopsis: One day, you’ll be looking out your window when something wonderful comes your way… and you will want to keep him.
When a little boy meets a stranded alien child, the two instantly strike up a fabulous friendship. They go to school, explore the neighborhood, and have lots of fun. But at bedtime, the alien suddenly grows very, very sad. Can the boy figure out what his new buddy needs most of all? This funny, heartwarming story proves that friends and family are the most important things in the universe . . . no matter who or where you are.
