Summary:
The rollicking adventures of the Stone family on a tour of the Solar
System. It all started when the twins, Castor and Pollux Stone,
decided that life on the Lunar colony was too dull and decided to buy
their own spaceship and go into business for themselves. Their father
thought that was a fine idea, except that he and Grandma Hazel bought
the spaceship and the whole Stone family were on their way out into
the far reaches of the Solar System, with stops on Mars (where the
twins got a lesson in the interplanetary economics of bicycles and
the adorable little critters called flatcats who, it turned out, bred
like rabbits; or, perhaps, Tribbles . . .), out to the asteroids,
where Mrs. Stone, an M.D., was needed to treat a dangerous outbreak
of disease, and even further out, to Titan and beyond. Unforgettable
Heinlein characters on an unforgettable adventure.
