According to the National Snooper, the queen of planet Zagon is on Earth. It seems pretty silly until Nancy and her friends have a new substitute teacher, Ms. Zagon. Kate Zaleski says Ms. Zagon is an alien. Nancy says she’s not, and she’s going to prove it—along with the aid of a talking parrot who’s helping her solve the whole mystery.

Carolyn Keene and Franklin W. Dixon are the pseudonyms under which many ghostwriters penned the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series, respectively. Both series were created by Edward Stratemeyer, founder of the Stratemeyer Syndicate book packaging firm, in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

Stratemeyer's daughter, Harriet, and syndicate writer Mildred Wirt Benson were the two people primarily responsible for bringing the iconic character of Nancy Drew to life in the minds and hearts of millions of readers around the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Are you a mystery lover? Then you'll love this book!
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2013
Are you a mystery lover? Do you like suspense and hate boys? Then you'll love The Nancy Drew Notebooks, Number 23, by Carolyn Keene.

One reason why I love this book is because of the different character traits. First there's Nancy, who loves to read and being with her best friends, Bess and George. Bess loves clothing and hates getting dirty. George hates her real name, Georgia, and loves sports. I like the characters because they're all different.

Another reason is because of the main events. Nancy, Bess, and George were invited to a girl named Katie's sleepover, and they read in a newspaper that an alien queen of planet Zagon has come to invade planet Earth! The next day the girls had a substitute teacher, named... Ms. Zagon! Nancy's friends think that Ms. Zagon is the queen of planet Zagon, but Nancy is going to find out. Find out if Ms. Zagon is or isn't an alien.

My final reason why I love this book is because of the action words the author used, such as, ran and wondered. Wondering is a verb.

I hope you consider this book for 2nd to 5th graders you know, otherwise, you don't know what you're missing.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Queen of Planet Zagon to Visit Earth!"
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2008
At a sleepover party, Nancy and her friends read a story about a pending alien invasion of Earth! The Queen of Planet Zagon is supposed to be on her way. Sleepovers are a great place for scary stories. Nancy and her crew are ready to forget it all -- until a new substitute teacher shows up in school named Mrs. Zagon!

Sit back and watch the rumors fly, and imagine how Nancy will have a hard time proving to her pals that Mrs. Zagon is not an alien!

Alien in the Classroom is a fun read that young readers will love.
