Even Aliens Need Snacks

My 4 year old very much enjoys this book and I like it a lot. I found it to be more imaginative and with nicer illustrations than "Even Monsters need haircuts". If you were to get only one of those two I would recommend this one.

Love Matthew McElligott and all his writings and illustrations. A true gem of an author and illustrator. Even monsters need haircuts still our favorite, but this won't disappoint.

I purchased this as a gift for a young grandson. It's adorable. It's funny enough to be engaging for both the child and the adult reading it and the illustrations are just plain cute.

Cute story

The item is exactly as pictured - it came on time and packaged well. It will be a great gift.

My grandsons love this one.

Some children naturally love to cook and delve into experimenting with food at an early age. Matthew McElligott has written a story about a young chef who decides to make snacks for aliens and ultimately the aliens arrive to eat everything he makes. The creatures Matthew drew are so creative and I believe children will love them.As our young chef cooks, he seems to have the knack at matching up the snack with the alien's tastes. One day that does not happen and the aliens depart, however you will be surprised at the ending of the story which is quite funny.I could vision this story as a springboard for you and your child to cook something together. Find out what the family enjoys and make decisions about baking , sauteing , mixing, and chopping up some tasty creations of your own. Have fun!

I don't think this one is as cute/entertaining as Even Monsters Need Haircuts by the same author, but my three-year-old thinks it's hysterical, so take that however you like. :) We agree that the art is adorable, though.
