Resumen del Editor

Is it space travel that children dream of, or merely visiting other worlds? Todd had always set his heart on being an astronaut, but when he meets an alien and travels to another world, he doesn't use a spaceship; he just hangs out in his own back yard.

In Space Boy, Orson Scott Card, author of Ender's Game, takes listeners into a strange and wonderful future, where people from another world regularly visit Earth, usually without being noticed. And when humans travel to their world, they find themselves dangerously weak and powerless, until Todd finds a way to set both worlds to rights.

By turns funny and painful, Space Boy is Card at his best, exploring human nature for the entertainment of readers young and old.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Card works both pathos and humor into this tale of a family pulling together to rescue one of their own." ( Publishers Weekly)

Kind of like opposite of a Heinlein story.

The story was ok but it kind of reminds me of some Russian SF and fantasy I have read. Our main character doesn't learn anything or discover their destiny, he just has an adventure and benefits from the experience.

I could see it as an episode of an anthology series, like the Outer Limits episode that inspired the movie "Poltergeist."

Good story.

Short but good. Original in nature, yet it was what my mom always said was important. It had imagination.

A fantasy story between Sci-Fi

I love this writer, especially when is Sci Fi, this book in opinion is not the best, but is OK

It's not long, but it is an interesting story!

If you don't mind that this is just a little story that isn't in any way connected to a bigger picture you may like this story. It's a little odd, and different and uses the word anus more times then I have EVER heard in any other book- but it's sweet and worth listening to!

This book is awesome

This is a great book loved it
It’s one of those shorts stories
Your happy you read its great
Entertainment the writer really did do
A great job

Enjoyed this quick one

Card is a great writer. Even in his short books he never fails to deliver a believable story that takes you somewhere else and makes you think about what you would do in these circumstances. Well worth the money.

Not child appropriate

We thought this was for kids because the story seemed like it but it has a lot of bad words and we did not finish it at all because we read a review after starting it but says there is some things worse in it that is very inappropriate for children.
this book needs to be marked for adults only.

Very good but a little short.

Awsome, but a little short, and straightforward. Other than that, GR E E E E E A A A A T T T!!!!!!

Another nugget

…what…. did we just read…? Hahahahaha 😂😂😂 oddly satisfying and worth diving in. Another peak into the brain of a mad genius.

Sci fi

Orion Scott Card did it again. Cute story about a worm 🐛 whole where one end started In the bedroom closet and the other end outside. First casualty was the mom🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼🐼again I say it’s a very cute story.
