Really makes you think and question the American government.
Also, it made me want to be in the place of those people and actually get to meet with aliens.
I still hope for it, every single day.

Libro per ragazzi che vogliono conoscere in maniera sintetica storie sugli UFO. Ben scritto e scorrevole, presenta alcune storie famose e altre meno conosciute, aggiungendo alla fine di ogni storia varie curiosità. Molto carina la penultima storia.
