Pre-read for a younger sibling, and liked it so much I needed to review it!
Literally my only gripe would be the lack of distinct voice among the various POV characters, which made the switching between characters each chapter very confusing at first. The character art for the chapter headings was excellent, and I loved the fun the authors had with naming things and how the characters interpreted Earthlings and their actions. There was actually a really rather heartbreaking scene dealing with slavery, where the one child asks "You free?" of one of the disguised aliens.
Honestly, I'd read others in this series if I came across them. Fun little book!
