This series is part of Scholastic’s early chapter book line, Branches, aimed at newly independent readers.

Real-life crime reporter Hilde Lysiak is starring in her very own early chapter book series — inspired by real news stories she has written! In this fourth book, a UFO has been spotted in town! Everyone is convinced aliens are invading, but Hilde isn’t so sure… Hilde and her sister\/photographer, Izzy, interview witnesses and follow the facts. And they soon discover what looks like the wreckage of a spaceship! Hilde has cracked all sorts of cases, but how will she solve this one? It is truly out of this world! Joanne Lew-Vriethoff’s personality-filled illustrations appear on every page, bringing Hilde’s adventures to life for young readers! <\/p>\n

{My thoughts} \u2013 <\/strong> Hilde and her sister Izzy are hot on the trail of what they believe to be a UFO. The girls saw a flashing light in the sky and then interviewed a few individuals that claimed it just had to be a UFO. This then started a bunch of rumors that aliens were going to try an invade Earth. <\/p>\n

Stories like this are fun and interested to read. I really enjoy listening to the things that the human mind can imagine. I think that’s the main reason that I enjoy reading so much. It is rather entertaining as well as interesting to read what people can imagine in their own words. <\/p>\n

The two girls do many interviews and they find some clues that lead them to consider the possibility of an alien life force. However, Hilde isn’t convinced and keeps searching out the facts so that she can give her readers the truth. I have fallen in love with this girls dedication and determination. <\/p>\n

It takes some time, but the two girls eventually find a source that is more then helpful. They are able to finish their story and they are able to post it online. However, the only downside was that they’d missed their posting deadline. Hilde wanted the facts and didn’t want to post anything that she wasn’t able to back up, despite her sister Izzy trying to convince her to do otherwise. <\/p>\n

This is a fun book and series to read. I look forward to reading more books in the series in the near future. <\/p>\n

Final Conclusion:<\/strong> 5 Star Rating. <\/p>\n
