Zack discovers that holiday traditions on Nebulon can be as appealing as those in Vermont (Green); Zack befriends an eccentric new kid (Monsters); Zack and his Dad return a baby dinosaur to its home planet (Prehistoric); Zack's best friend from Earth causes tension when he visits (Three's). This entertaining chapter-book series continues to explore typical elementary-school concerns through the context of sci-fi hijinks.

Zack finds out that two best friends are better than one in this chapter book adventure.

Zack is thrilled when he finds out that his best friend on Earth, Bert Jones, is going to visit him on Nebulon. Zack can’t wait to show Bert around the new planet, as well as his new school. But when Bert meets Drake, Zack’s best friend on Nebulon, some jealousy starts to brew. Drake feels left out when Zack and Bert tell stories from Earth and share inside jokes. And he feels even more left out when the three boys go to an amusement park on the planet Cisnos and Zack and Bert go on all the rides...without Drake. When Zack finally realizes how out-of-place Drake feels, he, Drake, and Bert decide to all have fun together. Because, of course, two best friends are even better than one!

With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Galaxy Zack chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.
