Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Tintin begins his greatest adventure when he and Captain Haddock are rather cryptically summoned to join Professor Calculus in Klow. It turns out that the professor has joined a consortium in order to build a rocket that will land a person on the moon (this was in 1953, well before Neil Armstrong). Unfortunately, the project has attracted some unwanted attention from those who will resort to sabotage and skullduggery to steal the technology. Is the project successful? Well, it's probably not that great of a spoiler to reveal that the story is continued in Explorers on the Moon. --David Horiuchi

    When I was a girl, my brother and I would hide under tables and in other secret places reading Tintins. Our parrot even learned to say, "Stop! You're under arrest," from hearing my brother and me read aloud from our Tintins. Tintins are great books to engage kids - boy our girl, doesn't matter. They always offer high adventure, humor, exploration and engaging graphics. Love 'em! I bought this and The Red Sea Sharks for my nephew's seventh birthday. I'm not sure that he's quite ready for Tintins, but he will be eventually and for a kid who is lavished with gifts from a doting grandma (not my mom), this was a good way to offer something special. : )

    This Tintin book is similar to earlier two-part stories in that the first book largely sets up the second book, but this one does not contain much action or plot development. Many pages here are developed to interactions between Captain Haddock and Professor Calculus, and relatively little action takes place to move the plot along.

    Still, it is a Tintin adventure and one reads these for the artwork almost as much as the story. The book of course sets out several threads that will be tied together in the second installment, Explorers of the Moon.

    The Tintin series is a big favorite of my son. He started them at 8 and continues to enjoy them. Great storytelling and artwork. Still relevant and interesting tales.

    I am so excited that Tintin has been brought to life again. I have very fond memories of reading it as a 10+ yr old. I have brought a few copies to read to my 7yr son, mmm, not as easy as I remember. I think I'll have to read them myself and then wait for him to be old enough to read them to himself! Not a bedtime story book! But none the less I am pleased to have a few copies of this amazing adventure book series.

    When my son goes to a birthday party, I add a book to the regular present. Both sons really got into Tin Tin, and this made an exciting side gift to a reluctant reader--different, intriguing, doesn't talk down, but accessible to a non-reader. Quality made.

    It has exceeded my expectations. Both books came very quickly and my brother loved them both. it brought back memories when he would go to the library as a young boy to borrow and read every Tin Tin book the library had.

    These Tintin books, any of then, really, make for *excellent* bedtime reading material to the kids. When you do is you lay on your front and hold out the book. The kids next to you can watch the pictures along as you read the bubbles to them. It's a beautiful thing !

    Reviewed in Mexico on August 15, 2017
    Love these books, big and beautiful. I bought it for my 8 year old son. He loves the cartoons and movie. It is at the top end of his reading ability, but worth the effort to read. He loves these books. Came super fast through amazon.mx, arrived in less than a week. I read online that it is not scientifically accurate and explained that to my son, he didn't really care.
