Mario and the Aliens

By Carolina Zanotti and Tamypu

In this fun tale, a little boy must learn to step away from electronics and play with traditional toys if he wants his new alien friends to stick around.

 Mario hears loud hissing and beeping noises in the backyard. Then, he sees the flashing lights of a real spaceship! Now Mario has three new alien friends who want to play. It’s up to him to show these friendly creatures how children play on Earth. They are looking for new games and fun toys, and Mario wants to make them happy so that they return. But the aliens are tired of computers and electronic stuff. What will Mario do?

Reviews for Mario and the Aliens

[librarianryan · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

The more I read, the more I enjoyed this book. As a reader, it made me think of the stories a mom would make up while at the bed of her child trying to lull them to dreamland. To me it does not read like a glossy picture book meant to have deeper meaning, etc. And that is what I loved about it. Plus the artwork just brings a smile to the face. The reader wants the story to keep going. It was a pleasure to read. However - DITCH the conversation starters for Parents. This is not needed! UGHHH
