Andy McBean is struggling to survive Middle School in the soggy hills of the Pacific Northwest. He's messy, fearful of bullies, and hates the rain. Having spent much of the last year in the hospital battling leukemia hasn't helped. Then one night a meteor storm devastates the county, cutting off power and communications. One giant boulder crashes into his neighborhood, skidding to a halt right on Andy's front lawn. The glowing meteor draws the attention of neighbors, the media, the army, and even the new girl from Andy's art class. He is thrilled at the notoriety, but everything changes when the meteor opens and a towering machine steps out. Separated from his family, Andy must fend for himself and rescue his friends. Along the way he meets an alien, learns what they want on planet earth, and devises a bold plan to stop them.
