Genre: Fantasy/Science Fiction
Age Recommendation: Grade 4+
This Silver Birch 2024 nominee is a sweet story about Lemon's relationship with her Grandpa and his encounter with gnome like aliens. Lemon's father does not believe that Grandpa actually met an alien many years ago and actually suffered through some teasing because of Grandpa's stories. This has made the relationship between Lemon's dad and Grandpa strained. But, it's summer vacation and even though Grandpa has moved to a seniors' residence, Lemon is determined to work with him to prove that Grandpa did indeed meet an alien. One night Lemon hears a strange noise and ventures into the forest to see if the aliens have returned. What luck! They have! Lemon and her friends begin a quest to meet the aliens and prove Grandpa wasn't telling a tall tale. This is a fun story about friendship, life on other planets and family. I recommend this book.
