This was not THE BEST book that I've ever read, December 27, 2005
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Marooned! (Mars Year One) (Paperback)
I'd advise this book to younger readers (around ages 6-8)because it's not that long and it doesn't use extremely complicated words (such as ubiquitous)and it doesn't delve far into the main character's personal life. It is reasonable for people who want to learn about Mars because it is jam-packed with facts. It is in the future, and young kids who like science fiction would pretty much enjoy it because it has mention of robots and spaceships. Forlovers of good literature and avid readers, it doesn't have much to offer because it doesn't describe that many things, only like splashes on a Mars colony's lake and those small things.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Marooned! (Mars Year One) (Paperback)
Well... I sort of like it. Brad Strickland didn't describe Sean's, Alex's, or Jenny's faces, only what they were wearing. That I don't like. The good part of Mars: Year One Number One is that Sean passes the obstacles and finally reaches his goal, to fit in with the group. The book is also full of facts about Mars. Those I like. I hope the second book in the series will be better and have more description.
