5.0 out of 5 stars A great kids SF book, July 12, 1999
This review is from: Welcome to Mars (Hardcover)
I first read this book 20 years ago and still remember it as one of my most memorable childhood reading experiences.

The book concerns Dolph, a teenager who discovers that an anti-gravity field can be generated from simple electronics. Using further parts from army surplus stores he decides to outfit a simple spacecraft for a sojourn to Mars. He goes...and gets stranded due to the failure of a simple, but irreplaceable part.

Sounds kinda dumb, but the book is well written, the characters are intelligent and believable in the face of adversity...and the ending is great. All in all its a fantastic kids book and a good intro to SF for kids...I wish I could get hold of a copy of this book...
