Running away from home is usually a stupid idea at best. And running away from a planet you barely know because you're angry with your father makes it even worse. Fourteen-year-old Simon Juarez didn't think about any of this as he ran away with his twelve-year-old sister Jessica in tow. And he didn't think about what might be in store ahead of them. There are dangerous people in space. And dangerous places no one will find you.

In 1903, Lewis Henry Jones, president of the Michigan State Normal College and a former superintendent of schools in Indianapolis, Indiana and Cleveland, Ohio, created a series of readers designed to be used by children for each grade level progressively. The Jones Readers by Grades were similarly structured like the popular MacGuffey Readers of the 1800s with numerous illustrations and engrossing stories that helped to teach children to cultivate a wide vocabulary and a love for literature. This new reprint edition offers children today a chance to learn the traditional Jones way - through engaging content that promotes moral growth and excellence of mind in habits, attitudes, and literary tastes. Suitable for ages 9-12.
