1-3How to Be an Earthling series.
Illustrated by
Jessica Warrick.
Spork, an Amelia Bedelia–like extraterrestrial, joins Mrs. Buckle's third-grade class to learn all he can about Earth. Along the way, the class learns character-building lessons that help both them and Spork grow. Accompanied by fuzzy black-and-white illustrations, these easy-to-read chapter books deliver their messages with a light touch. An activity reinforcing the lesson and a true/false space-fact quiz are appended. Review covers these How to Be an Earthling titles: Earth's Got Talent, Greetings, Sharklings, Take Me to Your Weeder, and Spork Out of Orbit.
