      my e-friend @dsawyer is writing a book on Heinlein's juveniles, and he's asked if I'm willing to read a pre-release copy. WILLING!?!? OMG, I can't wait. I'm an avid reader of books about SF authors, especially Heinlein, and this PARTICULAR book NEEDS to exist.

      Will there be a section on how some of his juveniles led directly for people going into certain academic and industry fields?

      It receives a passing mention, but not a full section. The book is focused more on the books themselves and why they continue to read well after sixty years. There are a LOT of subtle things going on in them, lots of secrets to unearth and understand :-)

      Nice! Another one: Farmer in the Sky got Greg Baer interested in astrophysics--he's now a Ph.D., engineer, and professor as well as an SF author (also married Astrid Anderson, daughter of Poul &allegedly the inspiration for Pee-Wee in Space Suit).

          Really?!?!?!? =-O Due to the vicissitudes of fate, I only actually read three of the juveniles while I was a teenager--but I did read most of the adult novels. Found out there were more juveniles when I ran across them in the college library, and got interested in the form.

          I read them all in elementary school. First SF novel I ever read was The Red Planet. Accidental - I knew I liked science, thought it was "about" Mars. Fell in love, read everything else by Heinlein on the shelf. Around 2nd grade.
