Into Space and Onto Mars with Burp, Hip, and Twist

Into Space and Onto Mars with Burp, Hip, and Twist was written in basic form originally over 30 years ago on an old typewriter belonging to the author’s father. This has now been extensively updated.

The stories are concerning three children’s characters and their mildly amusing antics. The various chapters employ a newer aspect of children’s lives primarily for ages 5 to 15. Burp, Hip, and Twist reflect the author’s own amusement at being a grown-up child!
