Gr 5 Up-A lighthearted mystery about accepting everyone just as they are. Priya "Sky" Patel-Baum is an orphan, and when her grandmother has to go to an assisted living facility, the 12-year-old ends up being sent to live with an uncle she has never met. He lives in Area 51, a top secret military base that is so classified that its true purpose is unknown. Not only does she discover aliens in Area 51, but they start to disappear when she arrives. Sky, who is Indian and white, encounters unimaginably strange beings, such as the Audiotooters, who release a delightful whiff of roses. Drones that deliver pizza and secret hatches that lead to tunnels in the living room floor are just a few of the things Sky discovers as she and her friends try to solve the mystery of the disappearing aliens. The school bully turns out to be one of her partners as she and Elvis the alien work to uncover the mystery and clear her uncle's reputation. Readers who enjoy science fiction with a touch of humor will find enjoyment in these antics.
