A 2002 children's book by Jane Leslie Conly.

Oluu, a careless young alien, is sent to Earth on a research mission. Landing on a dairy farm in Vermont, she uses her ability to take on the forms of animals to learn about Earth and ends up befriending two human children, Molly and Jack.

!!Contains examples of:
* SwitchingPOV: Chapters alternate between Oluu and the human kids' points of view.
* WhatIsThisFeeling: Oluu ends up experiencing emotions she's new to, such as fear.
* {{Xenofiction}}: Oluu's point of view is very alien. For example, when she first sees a dog, her narration describes it as "a smaller four-legger, with a fifth appendage that swayed back and forth on the end opposite the foreparts."
