A Stranger Thing by Martin Leicht & Isla Neal
Pregnancy was pretty
rough for sixteen-year-old Elvie Nara, what with the morning sickness,
constant food cravings, and the alien race war she found herself in the
middle of. But if she thought giving birth to an extraterrestrial’s baby
would be the hard part, she was sorely mistaken. After Elvie
somehow has a baby girl, the always-male Almiri completely wig out.
Suddenly Elvie’s supposed allies have shipped her—along with her father,
her best friend, Ducky, and her maybe-boyfriend, boneheaded Almiri
commando Cole Archer—off to a remote “retention facility” (aka alien
jail) in Antarctica. Talk about cold. But things really get complicated
when a new group of hybrid aliens arrive with information that sends
Elvie’s world spinning. Before long, Elvie is trekking across the bottom
of the Earth with a band of friends and frenemies to uncover the
secrets of her own origin. Will Elvie ever be able to convince the
Almiri that a conspiracy to conquer the planet is a greater threat than a
sixteen-year-old girl and a newborn who won’t stop crying?
