Charlie and the Whiz Kids must separate fact from otherworldly fiction as they set out to find their missing classmate in this action-packed fourth novel of the Charlie Numbers Adventures series.
As his schoolâs resident numbers guy, Charlie Lewis has always thought that if something canât be proven with a math equation, it might as well be mythâwhich is exactly how he feels about UFOs.
Charlie just canât believe in the existence of aliens without verifiable proof. Not even Janice, whoâs the smartest kid Charlie knows, can convince him. But when Charlieâs classmate Anthem mysteriously disappears after bringing a supposed space rock to show-and-tell, itâs up the Whiz Kids to uncover the truth. As Charlie and the gang trace Anthemâs steps to his eerily empty house, it soon becomes clear that perhaps Anthem and his father are involved in something much bigger than a lost rock.
From meeting with UFO enthusiasts, sneaking into hidden rooms, and being following by shadowy and dangerous agents, Charlie is finding it more and more difficult to stick to his convictionsâbecause what if aliens do exist?
