Heinlein, originally serialised in Worlds of If (November 1962, January, March 1963) , and published in hardcover in 1963. The novel is about a teenage girl named Podkayne "Poddy" Fries and her younger, asocial genius brother, Clark, who leave their home on Mars to take a trip on a spaceliner to visit Earth, accompanied by their uncle. This book and Starship Troopers were written for a publisher expecting to market a juvenile science fiction novel, and both raised serious objections from the publisher." "The novels that Heinlein wrote for a young audience are commonly called "the Heinlein juveniles", and they feature a mixture of adolescent and adult themes. Many of the issues that he takes on in these books have to do with the kinds of problems that adolescents experience. His protagonists are usually very intelligent teenagers who have to make their way in the adult society they see around them." (from Wikipedia) 2 132 #49987 $30
