From the Publisher

Until he discovers there are no slime tables, no snooze mats, and no snacks. Until he gets put in the Beta reading group instead of the Alpha. Until he meets the taunting Tera and finds himself longing for the good old days of martiangarten.

With sparkling wit, original characters, and marvelously detailed illustrations, Shana Corey and Mark Teague reassure all tentative students taking their first steps toward independence.

Readers will love trying out the made-up Martian language and discovering fun facts about the planet Mars. Large type, minimal text per page, and high content make this the perfect series for emergent readers.
