I'm a huge fan of Heinlein and this is a truly classic Juvie. Yes, it may be a bit formulaic, but those elements are what made him famous so maybe they are worth sticking to. Basically several youths with an older scientist retro-fit a spaceship with a new and improved engine and head off to be the very first to reach the moon. Once in space there are adventures a-plenty and a few surprises in the story telling. (I won't spoil it, but once your find out who the antagonists are, it's worthy of a good chuckle.)
But one of my more favorite juvie by this great author. Full of optimism, characters who follow a dream and overcome any obstacle. Believable? Well, no. But it's a good ride.
