Have you ever thought your teacher was so weird that she must be an alien? Alisa picked up her pencil to doodle, then she looked at her 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Spacey. Long ears? A tongue that hung to her shoulder? And a tail? Crazy thoughts ran through her brain and she had to write them down. She passed a note to her friend. It said, “Mrs. Spacey is an alien monster!” Before long, the whole class saw that note and all agreed that if you looked at her from the corner of your eye, you would see an alien...sort of. But no one saw exactly what Alisa saw. The only way to get proof was to snap a photo and share that with the rest of the class...and with the world! Then, the school would be famous. What could possibly go wrong with that idea? Read the book to find out.
