1-3Alien in My Pocket series.
Illustrated by
Macky Pamintuan.
Amp, a small blue alien who crash lands in Zack's bedroom, needs help returning home. But Zack prefers baseball to science, so his best friend Olivia and Amp illuminate various scientific concepts for Zack amid spaceship reconstruction. Complete with instructions for safe experiments and illustrated with comic black-and-white ink drawings, this series is a winning concoction of silly action and serious science. Review covers these Alien in My Pocket titles: Blast Off! and The Science Unfair.
