The Three Little Aliens and the Big Bad Robot by Margaret McNamara - OPTIONAL

McNamara, Margaret  The Three Little Aliens and the Big Bad Robot Illustrated by Mark Fearing.  Schwartz and Wade Books (Random), 2011. $16.99.  PICTURE BOOK.  Content-G.  In the same story format as The Three Little Pigs, three little aliens move away from home and the first two pick homes that are fun, while the last alien picks a house that is secure.  When the robot comes to destroy the aliens, they find their homes destroyed and end up at the safe alien’s house.  Great illustrations, but one of the aliens’ name is “Nklxwcyz” which is awful when you are trying to read a book to a child, which is the age group this book is geared towards.  EL (K-3)-OPTIONAL.  Reviewer, C. Peterson.
