Horus, a young Martian, eagerly starts first grade only to find it lacking slime tables and snooze mats. Placed in the Beta reading group and facing Tera's taunts, Horus longs for martiangarten. Can he navigate these challenges and find his place?

From the publisher

Like any martian, Horus was excited about starting first grade. Until he discovered there were no slime tables, no snooze mats, and no snacks (first graders were apparently too big for those things). Until he got put in the Beta reading group instead of the Alpha. Until he met the taunting Tera and found himself longing for the good old days of martiangarten.
