Our knowledge of space has increased spectacularly with the advent of space satellites, telescopes, and probes. Yet, sightings of UFOs continue to be quite high. Clearly, a skilled investigator is needed to discover the unsettling truth behind these alarming objects. This thrilling guide to the extraterrestrial, which includes information about Area 51, crop circles, and Roswell, New Mexico, presents heroic readers with need-to-know scientific knowledge, vocabulary, and experiments they can use to discover the truth about alien life.

A sparkling debut novel set in the sixties about a boy's emotional and fantastical journey through alien worlds and family pain. Against the backdrop of the troubled 1960s, this coming-of-age novel weaves together a compelling psychological drama and vivid outer-space fantasy. Danny Shapiro is an isolated teenager, living with a dying mother and a hostile father and without friends. To cope with these circumstances, Danny forges a reality of his own, which includes the sinister "Three Men in Black", mysterious lake creatures with insectlike carapaces, a beautiful young seductress and thief with whom Danny falls in love, and an alien/human love child who-if only Danny can keep her alive-will redeem the planet. Danny's fictional world blends so seamlessly with his day-to-day life that profound questions about what is real and what is not, what is possible and what is imagined begin to arise. As the hero in his alien landscape, he finds the strength to deal with his own life and to stand up to demons both real and imagined. Told with heart and intellect, Journal of a UFO Investigator will remind readers of the works of Michael Chabon and Jonathan Lethem.
