I found this one to be a nice easy and enjoyable story that still had some nice “thought stimulation” aspect to it.
I enjoyed the picture it painted of Mars colonisation and the relationship between humans and Martians

Enjoyable classic Heinlein

Loved it. Excellent story for teenage boys but enjoyable across a wider readership. Good narration. Gripping description of alien landscape.

Great story!
