Oh, What a Mars!

A tale of adventure and exploration that will take you on a journey beyond your wildest dreams. Join Micky and Mira Mars, two kids who lived on the planet Mars, along with their parents, as well as their loyal and playful dog, Nano, as they embark on a fun-filled holiday to their neighbouring planet, Venus. It all started one bright morning, after having packed everything they thought they needed, the family boarded their private space jet, the Star Voyager, and set off on their exciting adventure. As they approached Venus, they were amazed by the planet's vibrant colours and stunning landscapes. The sky was a beautiful shade of purple, and the air felt warm and inviting. The family couldn't wait to explore this strange and fascinating planet.

Their first surprise came soon after their arrival and they noticed that the ground beneath their feet was not solid like on Mars. Instead, it was a spongy and bouncy surface, almost like walking on a giant trampoline. Micky and Mira couldn't contain their excitement and began jumping and bouncing around, laughing with delight. Even Nano couldn't resist joining in the fun, leaping, and wagging his tail. As the family ventured further, they discovered "Glowing Tulips." The flowers had soft petals that emitted radiant light in various colours, illuminating the surroundings and creating a beautiful yet unusual atmosphere. They picked a few to bring back home as souvenirs.

Join them on a journey through the stars to discover new worlds and meet strange creatures as you explore the universe with Micky and Mira. Finally–Join the Mars family as they have a rare experience; dining with aliens right there on Venus!

This book boasts breathtaking illustrations featuring peculiar butterflies, rockets, stars, diverse aliens and animals, UFOs, and unique humans that will surely captivate your imagination and leave you craving for more.

OH, WHAT A POEM!

Oh, what a Mars!

A red and dusty planet

With mountains, craters, and storms

A place to wander and wonder

Where robots roam and explore

Oh, what a Mars!

A destination for dreamers

With visions of colonies and terraforming

A test for pioneers and adventurers

Who dares to cross this cosmic void

Oh, what a Mars!

A source of inspiration and curiosity

With secrets of the past and future

A Hunt for science and Discovery

That fuels our fear and ambition

Oh, what a Mars!

To reach Venus, from Mars, you must go

Mars and Venus, the cousin planets

Venture to Venus or stay marooned on Mars

Oh, what a Mars!

MARS, OH MARS!

Mars, oh Mars!

You are a wonder in the sky

A red and rocky sphere

You have storms and hollows

And crags that reach up high

Mars, oh Mars!

You are a dream in our minds

A goal and a challenge

You have secrets and mysteries

And visions that we crave

Mars, oh Mars!

You are a spark in our hearts

A curiosity and a passion

You have knowledge and secrets

The inspiration that you impart

Inspires us to venture to Venus

Mars, oh Mars!

To Venus, we shall go

As on Mars, we have prepared

From Mars to a cousin planet

Venus, oh Venus!

THE FAMILY FROM MARS

They lived on Mars, a family of four

With a rover, a dome, and not much more

They grew their crops in a greenhouse tent

And watched the stars in wonderment

They loved their home, but they yearned for more

They dreamed of planets they could explore

They read the books and learned the facts

About the worlds beyond their tracks

One day, they leapt to take a chance

And board a rocket for a new expanse

They packed their bags and said goodbye

And launched themselves to sky unknown

They flew past Earth, a blue-green sphere

And waved to the people living there

They saw the moon, a faithful friend

And wondered if they'd meet again

They reached their stop, a cloudy mass

A planet known as Venus, full of gas

They donned their suits and checked their gear

And stepped
