Omar’s elementary school experience has just been ruined. His caring and creative teacher, Mrs. Hutchinson, has mysteriously disappeared and been replaced by crabby Mrs. Crankshaw. Omar and his friends set out to investigate Mrs. Hutchinson’s disappearance and are pretty sure it has to do with aliens. Omar has to act fast before his big trip to Pakistan to visit family.
Omar is a fun character who has a vivid imagination and I learned a lot about Pakistani culture and food through his story. Omar’s family is close knit and supportive. Omar may have been the only one not to see the ending coming because it was predictable from the very beginning, , but his story is a quick read.
