The Three Little Aliens and the Big Bad Robot by Margaret McNamara is a fun book I picked up at the library last week. As you may have guessed by the title, it is a retelling of the three little pigs story set in outer space. Bork, Gork, and Nklxwczyk are sent off to find their way in the world, but need to watch out for the Big Bad Robot. I like the use of science vocabulary-space rover, telescope, satellite are a few of the words used in the book. If you have a reluctant reader, it may appeal to them because of the fresh setting for a well known story. My nephews ranked this as a 4 star book and a 5 star book (out of 5).
