Alien Ambassador

January 2011

On this month's Last Page, you'll see a Martian who (at least according to the ideas of the 1930s) is perfectly adapted to his home planet. Why stop at Mars? Draw your own alien and describe how it's adapted to its planet. Does it swim through a water world using retractable flippers? Does its purple fur help it blend in with the jelly forests? Whatever your alien looks like, we know it won't be boring.
