4.0 out of 5 stars It's a good book
If it wasn't written like how Virginia has written this book, I think that the book would have been much more boring. She gave information on the book little by little so that I could drop the book until I finished it. It gave me lots of things I could think about and go over. It gave me thoughts and imaginations on how people went hysterical during the radio play. I...

If it wasn't written like how Virginia has written this book, I think that the book would have been much more boring. She gave information on the book little by little so that I could drop the book until I finished it. It gave me lots of things I could think about and go over. It gave me thoughts and imaginations on how people went hysterical during the radio play. I liked it how each character was so different from each other. Some of them were completely opposite of each other and others were unique. I thought it was a good book and especially liked the conclusion. It was a good ending to the story.

A Kid's Review
If the story wasn't written in a way that Virginia had, I think that it would have been much more boring. The author gives information of the book little by little, making me hold the book and read it until I finished it. I agree with the others that it started boring, but as I read more and more the story got more interesting. It gave me things to think about a lot of things.

A Kid's Review
Xenia, Ohio, in 1938, Willie bea, the main character, a very responsible, caring and right character and her family falls into a panic situation recieved by a famous radio broadcast about martians landing on earth. It's a pretty good story, written by the famous author, Virginia Hamilton.

It starts really slow, but it gets better, until you can't get off it.

I liked it, especially the part from the situation where Aunt Leah started to panic after recieving the news from the radio broadcast.

The end is really good, good conclusion, I'd say. A great recomendation to the people who likes science fiction.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, October 2, 2006
A Kid's Review
I like the way it goes. It is in the year 1938. It starts out slow, yes. But then it starts to get better, and better, and better. Then you get interested in it. There is this girl named Willie Bea, as you can guess from the title. She has all her cousins and aunts and uncles coming in from all over for a reunion. I especially like the ending. It is about a chapter or so. I think you'll agree once you get that far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Willie Bea and the Time the Martians Landed, May 25, 2000
By A Customer
Willie Bea is a spunky character, also called 'Will Bea" by Bay Brother. Willie Bea extremly dislikes her bratty cousin, Little. All she wants is to be liked by her rich aunt Lucy. But in the end she gets a lot more than she expected.
