Story4.5 out of 5 stars 113
Bell has spent his whole life—all eleven years of it—on Mars. But he's still just a regular kid—he loves cats and any kind of cake, and is curious about the secrets the adults in the US colony are keeping. Like, why don't they have contact with anyone on the other Mars colonies? Why are they so isolated? When a virus breaks out and the grown-ups all fall ill, Bell and the other children are the only ones who can help. It's up to Bell—a regular kid in a very different world—to uncover the truth and save his family...and possibly unite an entire planet.

Fun but sometimes intense
Reviewed: 09-24-23
This story has important themes and enough plot to keep young listeners engaged. However certain parts of the story (the death of a secondary character and euthanizing a pet mouse) as well as dangerous and scary situations may be a bit intense for younger or more sensitive kids. The narrator was fabulous and did a great job with the dialogue of different characters.
