The Hero's Ride (1963)

 

This was a reprint of a 1961 Russian book translated into Estonian in 1963.  It is mostly an anthology of stories for children but with space art on the cover and a couple of space illustrations within I needed to share it.

Jarunkova, Klara. Illustrated by Eesti Riiklik Kirjastus. Translated by A. Raid.  The Hero's Ride. Tallinn: Estonia. (90 p.) 1963.

I think the translated title is : "To the Moon with A Rocket. " It seems to be about a a boy and his friend and his dog who want to go to the moon (since they are bored after school.)

This one is from "A New Space Plan." It is about a journey to Mars and how we will bring them gifts from Earth.
