Yorkers!”

Without warning, the ORB ?ew over the taxi, zipped around the statue’s ?ame, and

went back toward Manhattan. “Follow that ORB!” shouted the kids. The taxi hopped

back onto the river and zoomed to the skyscraper island, where the search continued
through the crowded streets.

“Stop!” Craig yelled. “It’s above that large rectangular
building covered with ?ags.”

“That’s the United Nations headquarters,” said Kiho.
“What’s that?” asked Claudia.

Craig checked the Magic Travel Book.
Made up of 193 countries, the United Nations is an organization that works for
world peace. Its goal is to stop con?icts and wars around the world.

When the ORB zipped off again, they followed it back to
Central Park and jumped out of the taxi as it landed behind
some trees.

The six new friends found the ORB, but became
frightened as it suddenly began to grow! When it was as
big as the trees, blasts of white steam shot out and a door
slowly slid open. Something tall and skinny was standing
in the doorway! It was an Alien with big, round black eyes,
no nose, and six arms curled up against its body.
