LOL! I should have guessed it. You can't fight the marketing machine for children. I had about the same results with my son and daughter during their formative years. I tried to get my daughter interested in Glory Road. She read it, ... about fifteen years later. Said she enjoyed it, but she never picked up another one. I guess one has to be wired a certain way. Try him on Have Spacesuit, Will Travel. It's more of a childhood fantasy. I've just started exploring the iPhone book reader program, Stanza. I located several Heinlein books through the online search, but the prices seem consistent with the paperback versions or even a little higher. Must be those royalty payments to his estate. Best, Herb
