Young Visitor to Mars

Ted and Jill Kenton and their parents are en route by space ship to Mars where Dr. Kenton is to pursue scientific research. As they are guided

around the flying space ship, a crisis develops. Another space ship is bearing down on their own craft. The ships just manage to scrape by each

other, but the Kenton ship is slightly damaged and must make an emergency landing on the moon for repairs.


Here they meet Randy Matthews, whose father is missing on another Martian expedition, and arrangements are made for Randy to join the

Kentons. The ship is repaired and takes off to continue the flight to Mars.


Once there, new and exciting adventures befall Jill, Ted, and Randy. They rescue a color bear who becomes their pet; they discover an air leak in

their space suits and barely escape with their lives; and eventually after encountering hitherto unknown dangers, they find the lost caves of

the early Martians and open the way to research of the earlier civilization.


This book of continuous thrills and excitement will hold the reader spellbound while inspiring real thought of the scientific possibilities of space travel.
