pluralstories"It was hard to decide what was the worst part about not having a mouth--not being able to eat, or not being able to talk."
Blurb: Final book in a four-book series. At the end of the third book, Rod, our sixth-grade human narrator, saves the universe by becoming the headmate of a six-legged, one-eyed, no-mouth-or-hands alien named Seymour. Book 4 takes up with the two trying to share Seymour's body, and also foil the plans of the evil mastermind who made off with Rod's body. (There's also a movie version from 2020 that toned down the multi stuff. You can skip it.)
Why is it worth your time? It's a fun kiddie-sci-fi action about a multiple saving the world, with fun asides about the concept of self and mind.
Plural Tags: Plurality on purpose, sci-fi plurality, nonhuman headmates (well, both body and Seymour are alien; Rod isn't), switching
Content Warnings: In comments below; contains spoilers.
Accessibility Notes: Available on paper and ebook, kid-friendly.
Misc Notes: Last book in a four book-children's series; it's best you read the whole series, but if you ONLY want the plural stuff, you can indeed read Aliens Stole My Body by itself; there's a "if you missed the rest of this series..." note at the start that brings you up to speed.
