posters generally agreed that most Heinlein juveniles were "good",
but everyone had a somewhat different rated list. For what it's
worth, here is mine:
Tier 1
* Citizen of the Galaxy
* Have Space Suit -- Will Travel
Tier 2
* Tunnel in the Sky
* The Star Beast
* Time for the Stars
* Red Planet
Tier 3
* Starman Jones
* Farmer in the Sky
* The Rolling Stones
Tier 4
* Between Planets
* Space Cadet
* Podkayne of Mars
Tier 5
* Rocket Ship Galileo
(_Starship Troopers_ was originally written as a juvenile and
rejected by Scribner as "too adult". And then Doubleday and Campbell
rejected it as "too juvenile".)
Move "The Star Beast" to Tier 1 and we are good.

"The Star Beast" is quite unique among Heinlein's books in that it has
many space faring races of different unique configurations. Very
unusual for him. And Earth was not supreme among the various space
faring races.
