  <default_description>&lt;B&gt;Sixth grade is just out of this world!&lt;/B&gt;&lt;P&gt;Susan Simmons can tell that her new substitute teacher is really weird. But she doesn't know &lt;I&gt;how&lt;/I&gt; weird until she catches him peeling off his face--and realizes that &quot;Mr. Smith&quot; is really an alien!&lt;P&gt;At first no one will believe her except Peter Thompson, the class brain. When Peter and Susan discover Mr. Smith's horrible plans for their classmates, they know they have to act fast. Only they can get rid of their extraterrestrial visitor--and save the rest of the sixth-grade class from a fate worse than math tests!</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[One of those books that was a major part of my childhood, but now re-reading it, I can't lie. It's pretty bad. It's a very very very simple plot and even then it transpires way too quick, leaving threads loose and characters undeveloped. I read a lot of kids fiction and this feels very unpolished.

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed these books as a child and I'm happy to report that they are unusually appealing for kids' books; the author, for the most part, doesn't try to do that dumbing down that a lot of authors do because they think kids can't tell the difference.  Mr. Coville writes with a sort of cutesy science...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8888273">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The <em>My Teacher Is An Alien</em> series has enough juvenile humor to provoke laughs at words like &quot;poot,&quot; and enough serious content to make this book stay with you, even as you grow up. There are moments in the text I still recall vividly. It's a really wonderful quartet from Bruce Coville.]]></body>
