Messages from Mars

40 pp. | Holiday | September, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1954-1 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Loreen Leedy. Facts about Mars are relayed through e-mails sent home by children on a fictional space field trip. The information is accurate and includes some good details, if readers can get past the awkward attempts at kidlike language and humor. The overly busy layouts contain crude cartoon illustrations that distract from good photographs and diagrams. Glos.
