A classic title revisited.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Magic Ball from Mars & Starboy (Hardcover)
In tune with the close passage of the plant Mars to earth, these first two books of Carl L. Biemiller are republished for the 50th anniversary of "The Magic Ball From Mars." The books are children's classics and still hold the reader, young or old through the all the pages. It is a time set in the 1950s, but with all the awe and magic of today. The illustrations are also classics. I still believe in flying saucers. Do you?

Magical Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Magic Ball from Mars & Starboy (Hardcover)
Once I began reading the books, "The Magic Ball From Mars" and "Starboy", I couldn't put them down until I had finished them. Delightful books for readers of all ages, set in the 1950's and definitely classics, they offer us a glimpse into the magical world of flying saucers thru the eyes of a 50's boy. I felt as tho I had been transported back in time. A must read for everyone of all ages.
