Invasion of the Nose Pickers

Based on comments of 10 year old boy.) This book is the third in a series of four so far (NP from Outer Space, Planet of the NPs, Invasion of the NPs, and Your Mummy is a NP). The main gag in the whole series is that the aliens look like they are picking their noses, but they are really operating internal nose computers. Stan (the alien from planet Pan) and Devin (the earth boy) have a class camping trip but Stan uses his nose computer to change the location of the trip to NY city. Soon they are camping in Central Park, but there is a 200-foot green robot on the loose sucking power from the planet Pan's main energy source. Their mission is to stop the giant robot!

Devin Hunter has no ordinary exchange student -- he has Stan Mlflynx, better known as Stan from Pan. Stan's actually a 147 year old alien from the planet Pan -- but no one except for Devin, the author of his 'Rules Of Coolness' note book, know where he's really from, and of his nasal processing powers. They're just about to go on a class trip when the Grand Pant, the smartest genius in all of Stan's home world, Pan, informs them of the trouble that's lurking on Earth. And Stan's own amazing nasal processing powers are weakenning, which is quite a mystery. They know that an alien called the Humongan is stealing the power of the city for some unknown reason, and it's somehow linked to Stan's disfunctioning. Luckily their class trip is headed right toward New York City itself -- where the Humongan is somewhere hiding. Devin and Stan have to stop the Humongan before Earth is turned literally inside out -- but where can a two hundred foot alien possibly be hiding? It's hilarious laughs and classic funny Gordon Korman in the conclusion of his silly but hysterically enjoyable Nose Pickers From Outer Space series. The story that began with Nose Pickers From Outer Space, Planet Of The Nose Pickers, and Your Mummy Is A Nose Picker concludes with the hilarious fourth adventure of Devin and his unique geek exchange buddy Stan. Gordon Korman has wrote another hilariously charming book, but I recommend it toward younger, fourth-grade audiences. Ultimately,though, this is the silliest book he has ever wrote.
