My selection is "You Are the First Kid on Mars" by Patrick O'Brien.
Written in the second person, O'Brien's book quickly immerses young readers in their personal trip to Mars. The four-month long trip covers every aspect of the voyage from leaving Earth to taking up residence in a Mars research colony. The young traveler explores the red planet's incredible landscape and observes scientists at work before it's time to board a rocket for the return trip home.

I have seen this on and it is a fabulous way to stretch a child's imagination.
I've been looking for more interesting nonfiction and will definitely read this one!
