Have you ever felt like a stranger in your own skin? Like you were born for something more-before the world taught you who and how to be? In Zaru: Who's the Real Alien, one otherworldly child arrives on Earth-bright, curious, and free. But through names, labels, school systems, gender roles, and quiet shame, Zaru begins to forget who they are. Just like we all did. This poetic novella is both a story and a mirror. It reflects the human experience of growing up-learning to shrink, mask, and perform-and then awakening to remember: You were never broken. You were just buried.
