 Summary:
Noah lives for piloting spaceships through time, dodging killer robots and saving Earth’s animals from extinction. Life couldn’t be better.


However, the twelve-year-old time traveler soon learns it could be a whole lot worse. His mom is abducted and taken to thirty-first century Mars; his dad becomes stranded in the Ice Age; and Noah is attacked at every turn by a foe bent on destroying a newly habitable, post-apocalyptic Earth.
Traveling through time in the family’s immense spaceship, Noah, a paraplegic from birth, must somehow care for the thousands of animals on board, while finding a way to rescue his parents. Along the way, he discovers his mother and father aren’t who he thought they were, and there is strength inside him he didn’t know he had.

My Review:

Noah Zarc: Mammoth Trouble is an upper middle grade, Science fiction book.
It´s written on first person (Noah´s point of view).
 This book is light and fun, the plot moves at a fast but steady pace, its action packed and full of adventure.
It touches a lot of subjects form political views, to environmental stances; this book is the perfect companion for middle grade kids and their parents.
What I loved the most about this novel is the “don’t let disabilities hold you back” message. Noah is paraplegic, but that doesn’t hold him back, in fact that is what makes him stronger and ultimately gives him the ability to achieve anything that he set his eyes on.
Noah Zarc: Mammoth Trouble is a wonderful novel set in the future, that promises to keep young minds entertained while broadening their knowledge.
As a mother this is a book that I will certainly give my son to read, the message this book gives to our children is one of hope, of never giving up and fight for what is right.
I hope that parents and children alike dwell on the importance of taking care of our natural resources and the consequences our present treatment of our planet will have on the future. Spaceships and time traveling aside is this the kind of world we want to leave for our children or for their children.
This is the biggest accomplishment of this book, it makes people think and wonder; what can we do to make things right, to make things better?

D. Robert Pease
THE AUTHOR

D. Robert Pease has been interested in creating worlds since childhood. From building in the sandbox behind his house, to drawing fantastical worlds with paper and pencil, there has hardly been a time he hasn't been off on some adventure in his mind, to the dismay of parents and teachers alike. Also, since the moment he could read, books have consumed vast swaths of his life. From The Mouse and the Motorcycle, to The Lord of the Rings, worlds just beyond reality have called to him like Homer's Sirens. It's not surprising then he chose to write stories of his own. Each filled with worlds just beyond reach, but close enough we can all catch a glimpse of ourselves in the characters.
