The True Meaning of Smekday (Single Title (One-Off) Book 1)

It all starts with a school essay. When twelve-year-old Gratuity (â€œTipâ€) Tucci is assigned to write five pages on â€œThe True Meaning of Smekdayâ€ for the National Time Capsule contest, sheâ€™s not sure where to begin. When her mom started telling everyone about the messages aliens were sending through a mole on the back of her neck? Maybe on Christmas Eve, when huge, bizarre spaceships descended on the Earth and the aliens - called Boov - abducted her mother? Or when the Boov declared Earth a colony, renamed it â€œSmeklandâ€ (in honor of glorious Captain Smek), and forced all Americans to relocate to Florida via rocketpod? In any case, Gratuityâ€™s story is much, much bigger than the assignment. It involves her unlikely friendship with a renegade Boov mechanic named J.Lo.; a futile journey south to find Gratuityâ€™s mother at the Happy Mouse Kingdom; a cross-country road trip in a hovercar called Slushious; and an outrageous plan to save the Earth from yet another alien invasion. Fully illustrated with â€œphotos,â€ drawings, newspaper clippings, and comics sequences, this is a hilarious, perceptive, genre-bending novel about an alien invasion.
