A Beginner's Guide to Ruling the Galaxy: It’s hard to crush your enemies when your homework’s due…
David Solomons
A brilliantly funny story of what happens when a galactic princess moves in next door and almost brings about the end of the world. Exciting new fiction from the bestselling, award-winning author of My Brother is a Superhero.
Gavin’s got a new neighbour and she’s really annoying. Niki follows him everywhere, bosses him about, and doesn’t care that her parents will obliterate Earth with their galactic warships if she doesn’t stop running away from them. Can Niki and Gavin sort out the alien despots (aka Mum and Dad) and save the planet? Possibly. Will they become friends along the way? Doubtful…

I throughly enjoyed this book. This story is about a boy called Gavin who meets a peculiar, new, girl called Nicky Apple who is also a neighbour of Gavin's. He soon realises that this girl isn't any ordinary girl, she is a galactic princess. Her parents are evil and they destroys lots of galaxy's. As her parent's are so evil, a married couple take Nicky and live undercover on Earth.
