A six-eyed teenage alien refugee becomes a Hollywood star in this hilarious series opener by the bestselling authors of the Hank Zipzer series, Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver.
When thirteen-year-old Buddy Burger has to flee from his alien planet, he crash lands in an even wilder place: Hollywood, California. But no one is shocked to see a six-eyed alien strolling around the Universal back lot. The tourists just think he's an actor in a supercool alien costume.
And the fancy Hollywood directors take notice too. They cast Buddy in a popular TV show playing (of course) an alien. After a video of his first episode goes viral, he becomes an overnight sensation, and suddenly, his world is filled with adoring fans, rides in glamorous limos, and appearances at all-the-shrimp-you-can-eat red carpet parties!
Will Buddy be able to keep his secret when all eyes are on him? Or will the glitz and glam of Hollywood prove too much for this alien superstar?
Alien Superstar has it all . . . action, suspense, and big laughs! --Jeff Kinney, author of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series
Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver keep us laughing while slipping in a lesson for kids--accept everyone as they are, even if they have suction cups for feet. Alien Superstar is a super fun read for middle grades on up. --Jennifer Garner
A funny interstellar adventure that will have readers watching the cosmos for the second book to arrive. --SLJ Review
Winkler and Oliver bring their sharply honed sense of comedy and extensive experience in the television industry to Buddy's antics on the set. . . . This results in an endearingly strange protagonist that will resonate with any kid who has felt like an outsider. A sense of humor and empathy are required for this zany adventure. --Booklist
