School Library Journal: "Just the ticket for budding UFOlogists."

Booklist: "A good, solid look at the UFO phenomenon."

Encounters: "Rather than promote a theory, Deem teaches careful observation, precise description, and critical thinking--the skills of scientists as well as detectives, writers, lawyers, doctors, and teachers.

Mooch online review: "If you want to get your kids to know about EBEs and UFOs and stuff, you must get this book. On the cover it says it all: Everything you want to know about UFOs, and how you can spot one. That's exactly what's inside. Everything from the different types of UFO shapes to close encounter stories. It teaches how to make a UFO report, where you fill out forms and draw pictures to remember what the UFO and/or ET looked like. I strongly recommend this book to anyone with kids, or anyone who wants a total, complete, easy-to-read guide to ufology. With funny little pictures of aliens, and detailed drawings of UFOs, and a solid foundation of information, this is a sure-fire good pick. Kinda makes you wonder how come these other 'UFO guides' that are meant for adults can't bring across as much consistent and concise information as this book."
