I knew I had a book here that Bill would like. I had to hunt the durn thing down, though!

“Escape From Earth ~ New Adventures In Space” Short sci-fi stories about teens. There are seven stories, but I’m hard-pressed to pick a favorite.

Some of them put me in mind of The Last Starfighter. All are good, though. No sex, hardly any recognizable cussing.... Good fun stories.

Thanks! It’s raining again here. I had Anoreth take Tom and the little girls to the pool this afternoon.

I've been occupied today with knitting the plot elements of something that could be stretched to fit these definitions. Sort of a "juvenile", if you will. I'd have to get started on it soon, or the kid would be grown before I finished.

Tentative working title, "Welcome Home for Prometheus".
