(3) 4-6 Many sixth graders feel like aliens, but Deborah really is one. Her family generally blends in, but once a year--for sustenance--each member has to eat a human. When she's pressured to devour her best friend, Deborah begins to rebel against what she's always believed was her destiny. Deborah's matter-of-fact Everygirl voice makes her likable, even when she's digesting a person.
