Wow. There is not much I can do to explain what this book is about, because honestly, I don’t know. The characters don’t talk much, and when they do, it’s in another language with weird symbols. On the first page, it explains that this book is a comic book that extra terrestrials read. I can’t figure out what it’s about, but I do know it is one of the funniest books I have ever read.

Lewis Trondheim is well … creative. VERY creative. I love A.L.I.E.E.E.N. It’s an excellent book of… I don’t know, just hilarious stuff that you have to see to understand. Lewis Trondheim is an artist and writer, and has earned international status as one of the most creative comic strip artists around.

A.L.I.E.E.E.N is a great book. It tells a story that I haven’t quite figured out yet. It’s laugh-out-loud-funny that will make you want to read it over and over and over again.

I give A.L.I.E.E.E.N. 5 out of 5 stars for being so incredibly creative!
