Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful book!
Review: As the one who actually got to remotely drive Sojourner on Mars, I have to say that Susi has done an outstanding job of capturing the excitement of this once in a lifetime event in space exploration. She goes into great detail about how we created the rover and lander, launched and guided them over 120 million miles to Mars and finally how we landed safely and explored the surface. The numerous illustrations and photos in the book should really make the mission come alive to young readers. The primary Mars Pathfinder Rover Driver gives this book two big thumbs up! -- Brian K. Cooper

Summary: Excellent for school projects & great just for a good read
Review: My son had this book assigned for a science projects class. Good, clear, photos and drawings/charts and interesting/useful facts. The text is detailed but still moves right along.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent for school projects & great just for a good read
Review: This is a good book for kids between 8 and 12 years old. A little to heavy for my 6 year old, and probably too lightweight for a 13 year old. My son, however, was entranced by the pictures, and was rather happy when I "dumbed" down the reading to his level.

Overall, I am quite happy having purchased it since it had enought pictures that I had not seen.
