Tales of a seventh-grade lizard boy

"Threatened with diminishing resources, Booger Lizk't and his family flee their lizard community deep below Earth's crust to survive above among humans. The Lizk't family of Elberon now passes as the Tomkins family of Eagle Valley. 'Tommy Tomkins' wears a human face to school but can't seem to fit in no matter how he looks. The basketball team becomes a pipe dream when bullies label him a bug eater, and only Dung Tran, an immigrant from Vietnam and fellow outsider, sees Tommy for who he is inside, which is nothing like the outer-space lizard invaders on TV's hottest series. Can their friendship survive the truth? In his first solo middle-grade book, award-winning creator Jonathan Hill perfectly captures the sometimes dystopian drama of middle school while reminding readers of the universal need for belonging"--Provided by the publisher.

Tales of a Seventh-Grade Lizard Boy

On the outside, Tommy looks like a regular seventh grader, but he and his parents are really refugees from the center of the earth, lizard people disguised as humans. Fortunately, Tommy finds two new friends: Dung Tran, an immigrant from Vietnam whose parents are investigating the town's mysterious sinkholes, and Scarlett Roberts, the quirky daughter of the new school janitor. But he still feels out of place, and it doesn't help that the most popular video game and TV show around are both about evil lizard people. When a misunderstanding leads Tommy to make a terrible mistake, he finds a way to tell people about his true identity.
