Bookroo's summary

At Bailey School, the arrival of the new nurse, Mrs. Redding, stirs up wild imaginations. The students suspect she might be a Martian on a secret mission. As they delve into their suspicions, they must uncover the truth: is Mrs. Redding really from another planet, or are their imaginations running wild? With each clue, the mystery deepens, and the stakes grow higher. Can the students solve the mystery before it's too late, or will their fears get the best of them?

From the publisher

There are some pretty weird grown-ups living in Bailey City. But could the new school nurse really be a Martian trying to spy on the students at the Bailey School?
