Area 51 lies in a remote part of the desert in Nevada. The United States military claims they only test new aircraft at the base, but many people believe the base is a center for research about aliens and alien technology. Readers will learn about the history of Area 51, what the military claims the base is used for, and why some people think the base holds many secrets.

      Grades 3-6 These new books in the Unexplained series provide just enough of a thrill to tantalize conspiracy-minded readers. Although the books heighten the sense of mystery by refusing to rule out even farfetched theories (for which they dutifully note there is no proof ), the authors generally balance such claims with a healthy dose of factual material. In Area 51, Martin veers between discussing the aircraft tested in the area and subjective ideas about subjects such as aliens. A combination of photographs and illustrations keeps the pages visually engaging, and the books' back matter includes a one-page glossary, which defines boldface words in the text; one page of resources, To Learn More, including several books and instructions on how to do a guided web search; and a one-page index.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
