Children Fly to Mars!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
"Messages From Mars" is a delightfully creative adventure story. Here, children are the astronauts flying to the Red Planet to explore the Martian volcanoes, deserts and huge valleys. Along the way they report their findings to friends and family back on Earth. What sets this book apart from ordinary cartoonish children's books is that almost every page contains amazing actual NASA photos of Mars, many shot right on the Martian surface. Children can picture themselves standing beside a Martian crater or exploring sites where the first Earth landers and rovers touched down. In "Messages From Mars," children can see what it would be like to travel in space, to look at our solar system and to travel in the low gravity and frigid temperatures of Mars. This book would be perfect for any child who loves airplanes, spaceships, flying and adventure. I have bought several copies for young relatives and children of friends.
