One of the most popular sci-fi horror franchises is soon to be expanded in a completely new form: A book based on the space shocker is set to teach toddlers the alphabet.
It’s never too early to have your first experience with alien horror. Especially if you want to learn the alphabet. At least that’s what the publishers of Little Golden Books must have thought, who will soon be adding a children’s book to the Alien sci-fi franchise.
Sci-fi horror series Alien explains the alphabet to children: “In space, no one can hear you giggle “
As Discussing Film reports, the book, titled A Is for Alien, is a “light-hearted reimagining of the [first Alien] movie, in which Ripley [Sigourney Weaver] and the crew of the Nostromo explain the alphabet.” In the 1979 sci-fi horror, an alien creature attacks the crew of a spaceship and wreaks havoc on board.

Exactly how the children’s book will deal with aliens bursting out of their victims’ chests is not yet known. On Amazon, Little Golden Books promises an adventure for young and old and advertises with the slogan “In space, no one can hear you giggle.”
When will the alien children’s book be published?
