Earth is secretly under attack by parasitic aliens called Yeerks. Rachel and her friends could be the planet’s only defense since they stumbled upon a downed spacecraft that gave them the power to morph into any animals they touch. Mr. Chapman, their assistant principal is a human host to a high ranking Yeerk and seems to be their best lead. Rachel takes the lead on this one, but getting closer to the Yeerk leader is dangerous. 

Good graphics will make this book appealing to a whole new group of readers. This is an ongoing storyline, so be prepared for it to continue. Tense and full of action, this should make fans happy.
