Unwise Child

Minor edgewear, foxing along top edge, DJ shows some edgewear, with yellowing inside. Text is clean, bright, and unmarked. "When super-robot named Snookums discovers how to build his own super-bombs, it is obvious that Earth is by no means the safest place for him to be. And so Dr. Fitzhugh, his designer, and Leda Crannon, a child psychologist acting as Snookums nursemaid, agree to set up Operation Brainchild, a plan to transport the robot to a far distant planet. Mike the Angel -M.R. Gabriel Power Design-has devised the power plant that is to propel the space ship Branchell to its secret destination, complete with its unusual cargo. And, as a reserve officer in the Space Patrol, Mike is a logical replacement for the crafts unavoidably detained engineering officer. But once into space, the Branchell becomes the scene of some frightening events-the medical officer is murdered, and Snookums appears to be the culprit. Mike the Angel indulges himself in a bit of sleuthing, and the facts he turns up lead to a most unusual climax."; 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall
