Messages from Mars

Blast off to Mars! It's the year 2106 and Dr. Lucas and Hoverbot X27 are taking a group of students to check out Mars firsthand. They are learning how Mars measures up to the other planets in size, atmosphere, and the length of a day. The students get into mischief and write about it in their e-mails home. Breathtaking photographs from NASA are combined with comical illustrations of the characters to put laughs together with solid information. Mars will never seem the same once kids explore it with Dr. Lucas and her gang.
