Resumen del Editor

Aliens, sassy hedgehogs, and unexplained disappearances . . . Oh, my! Discover the secrets of the universe in this hilarious middle-grade series from New York Times bestselling author Julie Buxbaum.

“Epically fun!”—Max Brallier, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Kids on Earth

When Sky Patel-Baum is sent to live with her mysterious uncle, she didn’t imagine she’d end up here: Area 51. A top-secret military base with a bajillion rules and so classified not even the president knows its secrets.

Also, it turns out the place is full of aliens. Lots and lots of aliens. But they prefer to be called Break Throughs, thank you very much.

As Sky sets out to explore her extraordinary new home with her pizza-obsessed pet hedgehog Spike, she meets her otherworldly next-door neighbor Elvis and his fluffy pup, Pickles. But something mysterious is afoot in Area 51. Some of the Break Throughs have gone missing… at the exact same time Sky arrived.

Where could they be? How can Sky and her uncle convince everyone they had nothing to do with the disappearance? And why does the macaroni and cheese at Area 51 Middle have eyeballs in it? New best friends Sky, Elvis, Spike, and Pickles try to crack the case, but the clock is ticking…

Awesome story

I loved the mystery I would recommend this to my sister and it was great

Love this book

After listening to the story, I can proudly say that this would have to be the greatest book I have ever read. I just know that if more kids and adults read this that they would 100% love this story.

Perfect for our students.

Perfect book for our students. Short chapters help keep the little readers interested and involved. Loved the name references and the vintage nostalgia embedded within the story. LOL 😊

Sweet and funny light-hearted listen!

This is a really fun and light-hearted book, and I'm glad to see it's an active series!

The only complaint I can think of is that the narrator doesn't emote much- the reading isn't quite monotone, but she doesn't seem to use much of any emotion, either. Not BAD, just...not great, either.
