Galena's Gift

For ages 9-12. In 'The Golden Grasshopper', ten-year-old Lisa and her cousin Paul's lives were changed forever when they met Gagar, from the planet Ylepithon. In 'Galena's Gift', Gagar returns with his precocious young daughter, asking Lisa, now a twelve-year-old grade sixer, to baby-sit her and teach her about life on Earth. How will Lisa and Paul accomplish this without arousing the suspicion of their fellow earthlings? Using her remarkable abilities, Galena is able to save a young farm animal close to Lisa's heart from a serious medical emergency. In return, Lisa unwittingly teaches Galena not only about life on earth, but about the most precious human emotion of all -- love.Nelson, Rosemary is the author of 'Galena's Gift' with ISBN 9780929141565 and ISBN 0929141563.
