Reviews for Moving to Mars

[kiday83 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book was absolutely adorable!! A Place for Pluto was already a favorite, but Moving to Mars was an amazing companion. The book's moral of finding the greatness and uniqueness within you was so well done for children, and the last pages were just too cute. Easy five stars!
