The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
When Danny Dunn tips over the mysterious jar of glistening liquid, he has no way of knowing that he will involve himself, his friend Joe, and Professor Bullfinch in a wild flight between planets. But anything can happen when Danny is around—and practically does.
Danny's mother is Professor Bullfinch's housekeeper, and Danny has grown up in an atmosphere of test tubes and experiments. He dreams of himself as the hero in scientific research and expeditions in space, and there is trouble with his teacher, Miss Arnold, when this dreaming continues during class.
Here is fun and adventure to delight the fast-growing group of young science fiction fans. And in sharing Danny's experiences, they will discover a great deal about the solar system and the new man-made satellite. Boys and girls will laugh as they learn with Danny Dunn.
