The Culvert Spaceship: Adventure Mars (The Culvert Adventure) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966131571)

Mia, Eli, and Jack never expected their homemade spaceship-a rusty culvert patched together with scrap parts-to take them to the moon. But when they wake up on the surface of Mars, it's clear their adventure isn't over. Their rocket, seemingly powered by mysterious forces, has brought them to the Red Planet for a reason. As they explore the barren landscape, they discover strange tracks in the dust, a hidden metallic hatch, and an underground chamber filled with alien technology. At its center, a glowing orb reveals a long-lost Martian civilization, showing them images of a Mars once lush with rivers and towering cities. Then comes the biggest shock of all-a message: "Help us restore what was lost." Before they can uncover more, the chamber begins to collapse, forcing them to flee back to their rocket. But as they prepare to leave, one thing is certain: Mars is hiding secrets, and their adventure is far from over. Can they solve the mystery of the lost Martians? And more importantly-why was their rocket chosen to bring them here?
