Everyone's a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too

by Jomny Sun

Finished another RA Favorite book, Everyone’s a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too by Jomny Sun. This is a ‘graphic novel’ with outstanding illustrations capturing the lessons learned by the main character, Jomny, an alien who is sent to earth by his outer space companions to learn more about the planet. And he does.  Jomny, a fairly isolated member of his community, tries to understand those he meets: the wise tree and many animals/insects (beaver, bear, bees, puppy and even an egg). Each of them attempts to teach him life lessons. Love, happiness, loneliness, and why we exist (and what for).  We go deeply into the meaning of the various ‘meetings’ that give Jomny a better understanding of life and death. The various characters open up to Jomny seeing that his curiosity is genuine.  It was a great example of being there to listen, to really be present… a lesson we all need to understand and bring into our own lives.  We can all learn a bit about ourselves when we take the time to experience life, one person at a time.  A well-written book by an artistic mastermind.  Simple, but so hard to digest.  Well worth the thirty minutes to flip the pages!
