Synopsis
Look up! UFOs exist is the story about the most notorious UFO observations from around the world and at the same time, it is a thought-provoking story for children about the need to look up in order to understand who we are and to open up to thoughts about what is going on outside of our own planet.
The author of the book, Frederik Dirks Gottlieb, had a father who was a member of a local UFO club in Denmark in the 50s. When he passed away, he left his notes and newspaper clippings and Frederik started reading them. That eventually became the very popular pod-cast, co-hosted with astrophysicist, Anja C Andersen, “Flying Saucer”, which now also exists in English.
In the book, Frederik Dirks Gottlieb tells us about some of the most incredible observations from around the world. E.g. the pilot, Kenneth Arnold, who observed nine flying objects with a speed of 2700 km/h from his plane. Or the Danish policeman, Evald Hansen, who was blinded by a UFO in his car.
The book is aimed at children and their parents – and is suitable for reading aloud and for conversations where there is space to let the thoughts wander together.
