Awesome book! Students will find Little Green Men at the Mercury Inn is full of excitement and mystery! Aidan lives with his parents in a motel they own on the Space Coast in Florida. He keeps busy helping with the many jobs he has at the motel. His parent’s motel, The Mercury Inn, holds viewing parties whenever there is a space launch. The latest launch does not go as planned and they all think they saw a UFO. Aidan’s friend Louis is obsessed with UFOs and swears that he actually saw one two years earlier. The book is fun and fast-paced; students will not want to put it down. There are some illustrations throughout the book which makes it even better. I highly recommend Little Green Men at the Mercury Inn for all students, especially grades 3-6.
