How would you like to meet an alien? Better yet, how would you like an alien to be the new student in your sixth grade class? Would you be afraid or would you be over the top with excitement? Tim is more than excited! Meeting an alien is what he always dreamed of. Each chapter in this humorous science fiction story alternates whose point of view it's told from. First it's told from Tim, the earthling and then from Pleskit, the alien. Meet Pleskit... he's purple, bald and has a 5 inch stalk growing out of his head with a walnut shape knob on the end of it; he blows his chances with the earthlings on his first day of school; he may be forced to leave this planet, someone is sabotaging his dad's mission on earth. Meet Tim...passionate about aliens, wants to be friends with Pleskit more than anything, forbidden by his mom to be friends with Pleskit, determined to help Pleskit find who is out to ruin Pleskit and his father. Will Tim and Pleskit uncover the truth in time?
