[edit] Plot summary
The plot is about three |American]] children—Peter Thompson, who is considered to be a nerd, Susan Simmons and Duncan Dougal the [[bully]. Susan discovers that Mr. Smith—their unfriendly [teacher]—is actually an orange-eyed green alien called Broxholm, who seems to be planning a world invasion. She calls Peter for help, and later for Duncan. They later discover that Broxholm's intentions are much more about the fate of |Earth]], and that involves many other aliens. At the end of My Teacher is an Alien, the children publicly reveal Mr. Smith to be the alien Broxholm, forcing him to escape Earth.
Peter, Susan and Duncan end up together again with Kreeblim and Broxholm for My Teacher Flunked the Planet, as they decide to join their forces to defend Earth in front of the interplanetary council. In order to do this, they explore Earth to find a proof that humanity is worth saving.
