The X-Files: Earth Children Are Weird

This deluxe picture book brings the beloved '90s sci-fi TV show The X-Files to life for readers of all ages searching for the truth and includes a glow-in-the-dark cover and stickers!

Best pals Dana Scully and Fox Mulder have pitched a tent in the backyard for a sleepover, but the night is full of strange sounds, lights, and shadows. Surely there's a rational, scientific explanation for everything . . . or is there?

GLOW-IN-THE-DARK EDITION: The glow-in-the-dark ink on the front cover, spine, and one sheet of stickers adds a special, otherworldly feeling to this charming picture book.

POSTER AND STICKERS: Young fans and their families can create even more adventures for Scully and Fox with a sheet of stickers and reversible dust jacket, which turns into a 22 (w) x 11 (h)" poster.
