Allen the Alien

Allen and his pet Byte are Earth’s newest visitors. The Earthlings seem very friendly to Allen—in fact, they run and scream whenever they see him! Thankfully, Allen has brought some of his favourite alien toys along so that he can play with the Earthlings. They’re sure to love his supersonic horn and his x-ray gun.

Although Allen is having a lot of fun playing, he doesn’t seem to understand that the Earthlings aren’t quite ready for a guest like him! Allen the Alien is a story about understanding and accepting difference. The simple text tells the story from Allen’s point of view, while the illustrations reveal that Allen is completely oblivious to the fact that the Earthlings are terrified of him.

Readers will love the hilarious reactions of the Earthlings to Allen’s shenanigans, which are captured in the wonderfully quirky illustrations. With a unique artistic style and fantastic rhythm, Allen the Alien is a humorous and multi-layered read.
