Creative artist Joey Spiotto designed a playful picture book titled 'Alien Next Door,' which is made to mimic a martian from the iconic horror film 'Alien.' However, the quirky book depicts the black alien as a cute neighbourhood-friendly citizen.
The book features the creature rescuing a child's doll from a flooded basement, roasting hot dogs over a campfire and even giving a young boy a fresh haircut. The alien is nothing like the movie version, which makes the book very appropriate for children.
Alien Next Door was created by Joey Spiotto and published by Titan Books. It is currently available online through Amazon. Additionally, the author will be promoting the whimsical storybook during a book signing in Los Angeles at 'Gallery1988' on November 7th 2015.
