Fun with beautiful art. The primary colors just pop! Perfect read aloud for K-2.

For: alien fans; readers wanting a silly book with surreal imagery.
Possible red flags: could be too scary for some readers.

A fun book with an actual alien babysitter. No real drama or challenges for the kids. Just the fun of meeting new people with different backgrounds.

While I thought the story was cute, the illustration style felt like 90s clipart. Sounds mean, I know! I enjoy a variety of unique illustration styles in picture books, from the very simple to the insanely detailed, but this didn't feel like a style at all. I'd suggest a team up with an illustrator but it looks like he's done different styles in other books? Guess this one read less space age more soulless to me, took away from the story. 🤷🏼♂️

Oh this book had potential....and yet, it was blah. I felt there was no point to the story. The babysitter doesn't do anything extraordinary; they are just an alien. I wanted SO MUCH MORE

Not much to this one, I wish there was at least some rhyme or something to give me a reason to even book talk this. Since I purchased it, it will be in my library but I think my students will be equally unimpressed as there’s not even any humor to it.

I read this for two space-themed storytimes, because even though it isn't spectacular, I didn't have a lot of options that would work for babies and toddlers. This one is short enough that it worked for little ones while still having some fun concepts. Happily, my third storytime had older kids who were concentrating well, so I was able to swap this out for [b:Interstellar Cinderella|22875394|Interstellar Cinderella|Deborah Underwood|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1415585916l/22875394._SX50_.jpg|42439852] at the last minute.
