Gah! I can’t get over the cuteness of this book. It follows two students with a fantastic librarian on a journey of wonder! They HAVE to save the school, and even world, from the aliens threatening to invade!

The best I could describe this book is whimsical! It is such a perfectly woven book for children. It made me remember why I use to love running to the school’s library every Friday afternoon! Even though I didn’t read it as a child, it felt nostalgic nonetheless. I’m really excited for the day I can share this book with my own children!

I decided to read this book with my daughter as part of our night time routine. She isn’t keen on alien storylines, as she has an active imagination and scares easily. However, she had no problem with this book! In fact, she laughed quite a bit and loved to pretend she was one of the characters in the story. She said she can’t wait to tell her teacher about this book.

It was a great book for us to share together and we both got a kick out of it. We talk about it often and my son looks as us confused when we say words like “glorp” or “spaghettified.” We told him that he will just have to read the book himself to find out. It was a great story and we look forward to reading more by this author.

This was such fun and reminded me of being a kid reading My Teacher is an Alien by Bruce Coville.

When alien attack and kidnap the kids at school in order to get glorp, it is up to Sophia, her brother Aidan and the school librarian, Mrs. Booker to save them all.

I loved Mrs. Booker. The way she talked to the aliens, you just knew she was going to be a fun character and not all that she seemed.

I wish this was a series cause I would love to read more of Mrs. Booker.

We will never look at libraries the same again! How brave and cute are Sophia and Aiden? Mrs. Booker is a fantastic librarian and Agent of the planetary crew! Although this is for a bit older kid my kindergartner loved it. This story was very creative and entertaining.

This book was such an incredibly fun read! Anytime a librarian takes on or saves the world is worth the read. Kids will love this book, and any adult that is a kid at heart will as well. This story plays on the imagination and brings out the kid in you. Its silly, fun, and shows what all kids want to do which is save the world. I read this book with my 7 year old and we both adored it. Ray guns, space, aliens, friendship, and more!

I have enjoyed this children’s book. There is so much potential when making science fiction stories for this age group, The story grabbed my inner child and I had to keep reading what was going to happen to the aliens, students, and the librarian. The adventure is believable in the eyes of a child. I highly recommend this story to an elementary school-age student.

Oh my, what a fun book! The adventure in this book was comical and non-stop. It would be easy to keep any child engaged and excited about reading with this one. Some aspects of the story were silly, but it still had a healthy dose of team work and problem solving. It would be a great addition to any classroom or home.

If you think that every elementary school is the same, then you are wrong, one school in particular is very unusual, this is Orchard Ridge Elementary School, however, only a few people are privy to the secret. One day a group of students are in the library for a typical lesson with the elderly Librarian, where she talks about the difference between the types of books and their content, for one student, this was her favourite lesson and the Librarian her favourite teacher, but the class went on as normal until something scary happened.

A group of aliens from the Planet of Wart burst into the Library demanding that the Librarian hands over a mystery goo from the Cafeteria which they want to use to spaghettify the Milky Way and rule the Galaxy, but when they are refused, they decide to trap the students and use them as leverage. This is when the Librarian enlists the help of two of her students to help her stop the Aliens, but will they be able to do it?

This is a fun filled children’s sci-fi book which is a delight for all ages, as three unlikely people stand between Aliens and the destruction of the Galaxy.

I will start by saying that if I had kids young enough for this book I would definitely be giving them this book. The author has a very imaginative story. I really liked how the characters were written and also how it really livens up a child’s imagination. The storyline well very far fetched is really what helps brighten and influence their imaginations. I really would recommend this book to anyone with young children.

4.5 rounded up.

This was a very interesting chapter book read. Perfect for children starting out in reading chapter books, and those looking for an adventurous read.

This novel takes us on a fun adventure of a secret intergalactic agent masquerading as a librarian, and the journey she and two students go through to save their school, and the planet, from alien invaders.

I loved the “out of this world-ness” of this book. It’s bizarre yet fun, and enjoyable to read. Certainly would be a hit for young readers looking for an adventure book.

There are some illustrations along the way that allow a better picture of the characters and what’s going on in the story.

Just beware that this story may cause kids to not want to eat hotdogs with ketchup (if you know, you know).

My kids loved this story. My daughter loves library day at school and is currently in 3rd grade so this hit a chord with her right off the bat.
They were laughing and guessing what would happen next and it really kept their attention.
Will be getting this to add to our physical library very soon (birthdays are right around the corner)

This was a good story. I could see some of my students enjoying this book especially those just starting to read chapter books. I thought the plot was easy to follow and the illustrations were cute as well. It is a good introduction to the sci-fi genre. It was definitely a story that students can relate to. I would recommend it to kids.

What a fantastic book for children. This book was so entertaining and took me back in time to when I couldn’t wait to go to the library for new books to read. Of course, I didn’t encounter any aliens while I was at their library, or at least not to my knowledge. But I sure did enjoy reading about them. The author did a wonderful job describing what was going on in this story. It was so easy to visualize it in my mind because the illustrations are so good. I’m sure that goes for kids as well. If you have kids I highly recommend you read this book with them. Give it as a gift. For birthday gifts to friends, to teachers, or to your child’s school librarian. I’m sure that they will enjoy this book just as much as you and your child will.

A very imaginative book in which a third grader and her brother help a librarian save the library from Aliens. I absolutely loved the concept. Third Grader Sophia loves to go to the library once a week and she is a good friend of the librarian. She has her routine chalked out every week until one fine day the library turns stinky with aliens. Now it’s up to Sophia to roll her sleeves up and help the librarian Mrs.Booker get rid of the aliens.

It was a fun book, very gripping and has all elements of magic in it. It was a wonderful read.

I just have to say that this is one of my favorites children’s books that I have read to date! The illustrations that are woven throughout the story just lend to your imagination going wild. It begins with the Sophia trying to reach a book that was out of her grasp, leading to her falling and being introduced to the librarian who retrieves the book for her. After this happen the action starts happening and where I was hooked. The way that the author has written this children’s book makes it where anyone reading this with a child would enjoy it as well. It has a great story line that just truly made reading this book loads of fun! I wish that this book came out when I was a child because I know that this would have been at the top of my long list of books to read.

This is a fun and entertaining book for those that are just starting out with chapter books. The plot is fast moving and easy to follow. It has likeable and relatable characters that children will enjoy. It pokes fun at elementary school cafeteria food and has two young children coming to the aid of a feisty librarian who is more than what she pretends to be. This book gives readers an exciting adventure for young readers and those that are young at heart.

Imagine being a third-grader and getting to go on the weekly trip to the library!! I personally remember those days because they were my favorite school days! Any great bibliophile knows that making a friend with a librarian is making a friend for life! Sophia does just that and during one of her weekly visits to the library, it is invaded by aliens!! The aliens have a bubble shooter that captures Sophia’s classmates but she is able to avoid it and does what she can to save her librarian. Come to find out, the librarian is a true friend indeed!

Super cute book with an awesome cover!

It was hilarious to watch. This book took my kids on a fun adventure, and they loved every minute of it. Now they want me to read it every day. So, I would say this is a success and so much fun!

What a fun story to read to the children. Aidan and Sophia are at the library when the stinky aliens arrive. While the other children run to find a safe place to hide. Sophia and Aidan stay to help Mrs. Booker, the librarian. Lets not forget the hot dog sludge in the cafeteria. This is a nice opening to visiting the library. It also introduces Sci Fi adventures to the children. This book opens the door to many exciting adventures. The story is fast paced and easy to read. The pictures are fun to look at and tell the story as well. This author has a great view of what children like to read. I hope you take a chance with this author and her fun adventures.

We follow two children and their school librarian try to save the galaxy after the school is invaded by aliens. This was a easy to follow children’s sci fi book that definitely kept me interested and I am sure will keep children entertained from start to finish. This lovely children’s book kept me entertained from start to finish. This book was fully of nostalgia from the school library of my childhood. I do think this may be a new heart warming favourite.

What a fun book! I was extremely surprised at the length. I truly thought it was going to be a quick picture book but instead it was a decent length with lots of details, description and allowed for a good world to start being built.

As I was reading this book I couldn’t help but be reminded of Men in Black. This book felt like a very fun adventure designed for kids that would fit right along with the world created by MIB.

It was silly, it was fun, and it was entertaining so 4/5 stars well earned!

Third grader, Sophia Boyd enjoys her class’ weekly visits to the school library. Often she will search for a book by her favorite author. She also adores helping out her favorite librarian, Mrs. Booker, each week. Sophia is used to her weekly routine, but quickly learns that today would turn out to be a bit different.

It’s Hot Dog Day and who would have thought a 3rd grader like Sophia would need to help Mrs B save the galaxy. On this day, they find themselves in quite a pickle thanks to green hot dogs, pink aliens & violations of the Planetary Code.

This sci-fi book is a great adventure story for kids and families to enjoy. The cover art is colorful and matches the story perfectly.

This story was enjoyable and captivating.

What an excellent, entertaining and imaginative book! I loved it! The story is so cute, aliens invading the library and Sophia and her brother Aiden helping the school’s librarian, Mrs. Booker, stop aliens from taking over. I like that the book encourages reading and showcases Aiden as having asthma. It goes to show kids that any child, no matter what they’re dealing with in their life can do anything! I can’t wait to pass this book along to my nephews.

This is one of the cutest children’s books I’ve read this year. I don’t want to be spaghettified. Two elementary students and Mrs. Brooks, the elderly librarian (at least that’s what they thought) were trapped in the library when the Wartians attacked looking for glorp. Bubbles, ray guns, and secrets came out. Could old Mrs. Brooks save them? The adventures began…I don’t think I’ve laughed so hard. My grandson wanted to know what I was reading so I started reading this to him for bedtime. He’s loving hearing about kids like him helping to save the world. What little kids don’t like reading stories where they are the hero of big problems? I found the primary characters strong and brave. They had fear but worked through it. I loved how a little MIB attire was in there. I found the story fun because it reminds that somethings aren’t quite as they seem. You have to read the story to find out what I mean. This is a story that even adults will get a giggle out of. The plot is humorous. The characters can remind you of yourselves. Overall entertaining book. Loved it.

I am howling with laughter! Finally, I now know the meaning behind school lunches that are called something like “cafeteria manager’s surprise” and what they are truly used for! As a teacher who eats the cafeteria lunch at least once a week, I am grateful for my newfound knowledge. As a book lover, I am pleased to find a book that features a librarian. As an educator, I now have a new must-have for my classroom.
