Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
SKYJACKED! One minute Kip Russell is walking around his own backyard, testing out an old space suit and dreaming about going to the moon--the next he is the captive of a space pirate and on his way to the very place he had been dreaming of. At first, the events are so unreal he thinks he might be having a nightmare . . . but when he discovers other prisoners aboard the spaceship he knows the ordeal is all too real. Kip and his fellow abductees, the daughter of a world-renowned scientist and a beautiful creature from an alien planet, have been skyjacked by a monstrous extraterrestrial who is flying them to the moon--on a journey toward a fate worse than death. . . . Have Space Suit--Will Travel is the newest addition to the Del Rey Imagine program, which offers the best in classic fantasy and science fiction for readers 12 and up.
