Pepper Pretorious Saves the Day

Pepper Pretorious is the smartest child in the whole third grade—human or alien—on the domed colony of Danu.


She also plans to win the first-ever school talent contest.


Her teacher tells her parents she could steal the show. (Why would she want to steal anything? That makes no sense.)


And no group of adolescent, lavender-grey, wafting-tentacled aliens is gonna stand in her way.
