ENDANGERED SPECIES

When Percy the Mad Poet assigns Ms. Weintraub's class to write poems about their pets, Pleskit decides he should bring his Veeblax to school.

Not a good idea! When the little shapeshifter frightens one of Pleskit's classmates, she freaks out -- and so do the newspapers. As the situation spins out of control, it becomes clear that Pleskit may lose his pet, his teacher may lose her job, and Earth may lose the benefits of the alien connection.

Running away may be the only way for Pleskit to save the Veeblax. But where can you run to when you're the only purple kid on the planet? And what do you do when something very strange starts following you?

Is this the end of the Alien Mission?

All things must come to an end -- even sixth grade. But not all things end happily, and it looks as if Pleskit Meenom's year as a sixth grade alien is about to end in catastrophe as Earth is swept by rumors that something horrible has happened at the alien embassy. Soon anti-alien demonstrations erupt outside Pleskit's school.

Who is behind the rumors? Is there really a secret enemy on the embassy staff? What happens if the mission fails?

When Pleskit disappears, those questions take on new urgency. Desperate to answer them, Pleskit's friends Tim Tompkins and Rafaella Cruz are forced to team up with Tim's old enemy, Jordan Lynch, to save the mission...and Earth!

MY BEST FRIEND IS A ZOMBIE
It's science fair time again, and Tim Tompkins is in trouble. It's only two days until the big event, and he hasn't finished his project.
In fact, he hasn't even started it.
Given Tim's past history, this is no big surprise.
But this year Tim has a new resource -- his alien friend, Pleskit Meenom. Surely with his super science, Pleskit can help Tim come up with a knockout project for the science fair.
But Pleskit's potent potion turns out to have side effects that not even an alien could have expected, and soon he's desperately trying to answer the question: "What do you do when you've just amputated your best friend's personality?"

Maktel Geebrit, Pleskit's pen pal from back home on Hevi-Hevi, is finally going to visit him on Earth. Pleskit is excited, but a little nervous, too. How will Maktel get along with Pleskit's new friend, Tim?

And just how does a kid cope with having two best friends on the same planet, anyway?

As if that question wasn't hard enough, Pleskit's Fatherly One also has an off-world visitor -- an elegant trader named Ellico vec Bur. But is Ellico really a friend, or is the trader also a traitor...the greatest menace that the mission to Earth has yet faced?

The search for an answer plunges Pleskit, Tim, Maktel, and Linnsy into danger beyond their wildest dreams!
