Summary
Editor reviews
This novel is a nostalgic classic from the 1960s. The extra-terrestrial environment in which it occurs is, like the Earth itself, a place that is colonized and exploited. Jack Holloway enters planet Zarathustra with his wards the Fuzzies, trying to secure them a home. The Fuzzies are a good metaphor for all the displaced people and animals on Earth. This vintage novel has depth; it raises questions of how sentience can be measured, and what it means to have a place in the world. Narrator Peter Ganim faithfully recites the groovy sci-fic verbiage of the book, but his sincere delivery make the listener bypass the quaint wonkiness and focus on the still-relevant questions found here. A good listen for those interested in early works of sci-fi.

A Fun Little Story
A basic but fun little story which was clearly the inspiration for the Ewoks and later Avatar. It suffers from repetition and getting a bit bogged down in procedure, particularly towards the end, but it's still good. I just would have preferred a bit more Fuzzy!! Looking forward to reading more in the series from the ill-fated author himself and others such as the great John Scalzi.

good story if a little dated
a good feel good story but a little dated, with a lack of depth to the single female character.

Why is this not a movie?
This was written in 1962. The science is so off it makes me smile.
This single book has spawned a massive amount of fan fiction. It is a pleasure to read something that moves away from the laser gun / spaceship end of Sci Fi and into the 'humanities endeavors to grow off world.'

Pleasant story and well narrated
If you’re looking for a feel good story then look no further. Nice story to pass the time and not have you think too deeply about complex plot twists

has everything for a great movie
It has cute aliens, a nefarious corporation, courtroom drama and an underdog trying to do the right thing. I love it.

A good story
It was an original story with characters you care about. The story is a bit simple, but everything doesn't have to be perfect to be enjoyed.
