Alien Next Door by Joey Spiotto
My rating: 4/5 cats
this is a pretty cute book that humanizes everyone’s favorite face-hugging friend. since there aren’t any words in the book, i was inspired to provide my own.
they are slaves to their cats
they cry onion tears
they have strong problem-solving skills
they get too excited by treats and make a mess
they do their houseguests’ laundry
they are obsessed with internet cats. and selfies.
they are nerds
they pick up bad ideas from movies
they throw wild parties and and experience morning-after regret.
sometimes they need a little help from a pal
they curse the rudeness of humans
they are invested in improving workplace morale
and yes, they mourn their makers
in fact, the only way in which we differ?
in xenomorph town, dentist is scared of you.
in any case, this book is full of similarly adorable pictures, and if you’ve liked any of jeffrey brown’s cute nerdy star wars books, this would be a good addition to that shelf.
rarrrr, xenomorph!
