Nhuk, the Space Alien Girl

by Donald E. Hammond

Born on the doomed planet Zeet, home to a civilization one million years more advanced than humanity, ten-year-old Nhuk is forced to flee for her life before her planet tears itself apart. The last survivor of her species, she must make the long journey to Earth on her own. As one of the most intelligent members of her species, she is destined for greatness. When her spaceship crashes in Tibet, she is given refuge in a Buddhist monetary. Soon, she befriends Tom, Audrey, and Peter, three children from the American Embassy, and her new life adventure begins. But the people of Earth aren’t as open-minded as those of Zeet. Condemned as an imminent threat to humanity, Nhuk must stay one step ahead of the authorities if she hopes to save her adopted home world from nuclear holocaust. She offers the Peace Crystal, a precious artifact from Zeet, in hopes of ushering in a new era of harmony. Can she save humanity from itself?
