Now Zack is easy prey for his little brother, Taylor, who's determined to find out once and for all what mysteries Zack has hidden in his pocket. Like every book in the Alien in My Pocket series, On Impact! mixes Common Core-aligned science and safe, hands-on experiments with a hilarious story that young readers will love.

When the time comes for him to start school, he is labeled 'unteachable.' Becasue his family has very little money, his parents and older sister, Molly, feel powerless to help him.
