REVIEW: HAPPY CURIOUS EVENTS DAY!

​What is a curious event? If something is curious to one, is it curious to all? This book puts that question to the test.

​TITLE: ALIEN TOMATO

AUTHOR: Kristen Schroeder

ILLUSTRATOR: Mette Engell

PUBLISHER: Page Street Kids/2020

OPENING LINES: 
It streaked through the sky on a perfect day in July…
and landed in the garden.
The veggies were curious about the newcomer.

A red sphere flies through the air, lands in a garden, and the veggies all ponder what it might be. They quickly decide it must be an alien tomato! But Gopher knows better. The problem is, no one listens to him. Kristen Schroeder's humorous text is matched with Mette Engel's bright, cheery illustrations. Gopher's expressions are hilarious & the twist ending is just right. What a fun read!
