Martin Bridge ready for takeoff! / Ready for takeoff! written by Jessica Scott Kerrin ; illustrated by Joseph Kelly. - Toronto : Kids Can Press, c2005. - 120 p. : ill. ; 19 cm.

Meet Martin Bridge-a most special and ordinary boy whose well-meant plans sometimes go awry. In three illustrated stories, Martin encounters two bus drivers with very different ways of relating, makes a tough decision about a friend's pet and takes on an extremely competitive model rocket project that almost costs him a friendship. The daily rhythms, struggles and triumphs of childhood-at home, at school and with friends-are evoked with warmth, understanding, honesty and humor.
