Good stuff Dan.

I'm finishing up "Ender's Game" 70's Sci Fi:
Intense is the word for Ender's Game. Aliens have attacked Earth twice and almost destroyed the human species. To make sure humans win the next encounter, the world government has taken to breeding military geniuses -- and then training them in the arts of war... The early training, not surprisingly, takes the form of 'games'... Ender Wiggin is a genius among geniuses; he wins all the games... He is smart enough to know that time is running out. But is he smart enough to save the planet?

Also reading "To Fly and Fight" C.E. "Bud" Anderson (triple ace in WWII Mustang)

P.D. Eastman's "Go Dog Go" Copyright 1961 - Its got cars, its got dogs - what else can I say?!!!
