The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams

As Arthur escapes Earth with longtime friend Ford Prefect moments before the Earth's Destruction his life is turned upiside down in a series of misadventures. After being ejected into space by angry Vogons (who have the worst poetry in the Galaxy) the duo is accidentally rescued by Zaphod Beeblebrox on the stolen ship "Heart of Gold" and set out to find Mathagra, a planet that disapeared from space charts over 5 milllion years ago.
This is a great read for children of ages 10 through 15. It has has lots of laughs that make it an enjoyable and interesting book. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a funny and high quality book.

Maybe I should read this one. I started reading it a long time ago but never finished it for some reason.
