Mars Rover Rescue

by Andrew Rader, Galen Frazer (Illustrator)

Your favorite giraffestronaut and robot are back, and this time they're forming a rescue party to search for a missing Mars rover.

Our intrepid space explorers are headed for Mars to search for a rover missing somewhere across the vast Martian landscape. But first they'll have to get there and figure out how to live on the red planet - something they can only do by working together.

Mars Rover Rescue presents space science in a way that's easy to understand, combined with an exciting story line and character interaction. Each character has a bit of backstory, with a characteristic quote and favorite food.

Written by real-life Aerospace Engineer Andrew Rader, this hardcover book edition features 56 pages of beautiful, full-color illustrations by professional artist Galen Frazer. It's a standalone book, but second in a series, after Epic Space Adventure (2015).

I wish we had more mars facts or rover facts? Nice art and rhyming text (and teamwork), but I would have liked to have learned more about space.

Fun, rhyming story about animal astronauts’ adventures on Mars. This book would appeal to both little space enthusiasts and their parents. I enjoyed that each page started with the next letter of the alphabet. I’m sure this story will inspire hours of imaginative play in young readers and astronauts.
