Overview

""A wildly imaginative, out-of-this-world adventure-STEM meets sports in the best possible way."" It's the year 2133, and 12-year-old Nolan Hubble has been invited to Mars to play baseball against a youth team of Martian colonists. As the star player of the Earth Terras, Nolan is sure his team can crush the Mars Red Rox in the Solar Series Championship-until he realizes that baseball (and life) is much different on Mars. The ball travels farther, curveballs don't curve, and there's the slight problem of trying to breathe! When an incident leaves the Terras without a coach, Nolan's brainy best friend, Tommy, steps up to lead the team. Together, they face frigid temperatures, strange food, and a cheating Red Rox slugger who's lying about his age. But perhaps the only thing more hostile than the Martian environment is Nolan's parents when they discover he's snuck off to the Red Planet without their permission! Can Nolan and Tommy adapt to Mars and win the championship before getting grounded across the solar system? ""The Sandlot meets The Martian-an instant classic for young readers who dream big."" ""A home run for readers everywhere! Funny, fast-paced, and full of imagination.""
