This book is hilarious. In fact, it reminds me of science fiction papers I've read of 4th graders I've taught. The book is about everything a kid could imagine when it comes to outer space. An alien flies to earth to save his teacher. He is discovered by some young boys who of course find it super fun to give an alien a home. The alien lives off of oil and has a pretty good time here on earth with the kids. The story gets even more funny when the kids decide to dress the alien up and bring him to school. This book could be used during writing class. It could give kids fun and funny ideas and images to write about.

RDex is a runaway, but not your typical runaway. He's a young alien who has stolen a star ship in order to rescue his teacher, who he thinks is being held as a prisoner on earth. After crashing on earth, RDex is befriended by two middle graders,Tommy and Hawk. RDex lives in a shed in Hawk's backyard, where he watches old cowboy movies for entertainment and drinks cans of oil to quench his thirst. When Tommy and Hawk disguise RDex as a human and bring him to class, that's when things get complicated.
