Alien Schoolboy's Z-A Guide to Earthlings (Letters from an Alien Schoolboy) - Tapa blanda

A side-splitting look at school life, from an alien point of view. Earth is such a weird place that Flowkwee, an alien who is visiting Earth disguised as a schoolboy, has put together a guide to help all his friends back on planet Faa get to grippers with baffling human ways. Arranged in A - Z Y order, he explains cute clever little Ants so unappreciated by humans, Clothes (including the very disappointing clothe called a 'jumper' that stays still and never jumps), Sweeties with their lovely crunchy wrappers . . . and much more.
