Peanut Butter & Aliens is a science fiction (SF) book by Joe McGee and illustrated by Charles Santoso. This book is about the humans and zombies that live peacefully together in a fictitious town called Quirkville. But things change when aliens invade the town. What will the zombies and humans do?

This book would be best read aloud (RA).

Nkaufmann Students will have a great time listening to the teacher read a book about zombies, humans, AND aliens. There are onomatopoeias and great illustrations that will have students engaged and laughing.

The UDL principle 3.3 regarding guiding information processing and visualization and the EL principle 14 regarding simplifying your speech by making it slower and redundant would both be met by this picture book. It is important to go at a slower... 4y
Nkaufmann pace when reading a book aloud to students. It is also important to guide your students while reading the book to ensure that they are processing all of the information and pictures and using it to make inferences, predictions, etc. (Depending on your purpose of the read-aloud)

DrSpalding Scholastic is a high-quality resource. This is more so modern fantasy than science fiction. Remember that science fiction is based in scientific principle. 4y

Created by Joe McGee, this SF picture book is the sequel to Peanut Butter & Brains. Perfect for a RA due to the humor of the story and the detail of the pictures. In Peanut Butter & Aliens, all chaos breaks loose when aliens arrive in Quirkville. The aliens are displeased with their food choices and begin to cover the town in grape jelly.

kkidwell Some of the town‘s residents attempt to solve the problem by introducing peanut butter to the equation. The focus is then turned to creating the best sandwich ever. This story can teach the value of community in a humorous, out of this world context. #UCFLAE3414F17 7y
