Wondering about the existence of Martians is always a really popular topic and this story really gives the reader even more fuel for believing. The setting is New Mexico in 1947 when a flying saucer crash lands nearby in Roswell. Mylo and his two best friends Dibs and Gracie set out to investigate. It gets more interesting when they begin to hear voices calling for help.
The book reminded me of the movie E.T. and The LIttle Rascals Gang. Savage has some historical notes about the Roswell incident in the back of the book that nudges the reader to believe that a Martian sighting might have actually happened. Hopefully, adults can encourage kids to keep reading and seeking more information on this conspiracy theory.
This is another fun book for kids to read. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and I give it a 4 out of 4 rating.
