The Area 51 Files: Way off Base #4

The Area 51 Files: Way off Base by Julie Buxbaum, illustrated by Lavanya Naidu, is the fourth book in the laugh-out-loud, Edgar Award—nominated series for young readers. For the first time since Sky arrived at Area 51, things seem calm—no bunker hideouts, no space toilets, no kidnappings. Everyone is preparing for a visit from a special government official. But on the morning of the visit, a UFO vanishes from the science lab, and a whistleblower claims to have evidence of a UFO landing. With less than a week to solve the mystery, Sky and her otherworldly friends must act fast to protect Area 51's secrets before they're exposed to the world.

This fast-paced, humorous mystery blends sci-fi adventure with themes of friendship, curiosity, and courage.
