Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4-6-Students looking for information about astronauts and space travel will find these slim volumes useful. Each book begins with a brief account of the mission the astronaut participated in, followed by a chapter on his life leading up to his historic journey. The clear, concise texts are enhanced by full-color and black-and-white photos throughout. The information is well organized and the rigors of training and space flight are clearly explained. Readers with no background on the subject will learn about the featured individual as well as the space program and how it has evolved.-Allison Trent Bernstein, Blake Middle School, Medfield, MA
