It just so happens that martians tend to act out in school, too.
But when his spaceship touches down again in the backyard, a young martian crawls out, proclaiming to Stanley\'s dad that residents of Mars don\'t wash before dinner, eat their vegetables, or brush their teeth.
But who\'s this small martian returning in his place who doesn\'t follow earthling rules? On the day that Stanley\'s mom takes a work trip overnight, Stanley decides to leave planet Earth.
