I would gift them The New Testament, because, whether the alien was a believer or a non-believer, there is so much to learn about humanity from the words and deeds of Christ. I would also gift them Winnie-The-Pooh for the way in which A.A. Milne creates a magical world where friends and other creatures matter for the…
