Animorphs: The Invasion by K. A. Applegate
What Animorphs: The Invasion is about
When Jake, Rachel, Tobias, Cassie, and Marco find a downed alien spaceship and its dying pilot, they learn two things:
- The Earth is being invaded.
- No one else knows about it, so it’s up to them to stop it.
After their encounter with the space alien, the kids are given a spectacular super power — they can transform into any animal they touch.
Will their new powers be enough to save the Earth?
What The Eleven-Year-Old thinks about it
“The cover is much scarier than the book. This book isn’t nearly as creepy as it sounds. The story itself is amazing.”
The Notebook of Doom: Rise of the Balloon Goons by Troy Cummings
