Staff Picks: Shoot for the Moon: the Space Race and the Extraordinary Voyage of Apollo 11 by James Donovan

Shoot for the Moon: The Space Race and the Extraordinary Voyage of Apollo 11 by James Donovan

I love reading about outer space! The informative and exciting journey of the space program from its inception to achieving the daunting challenge of landing on the moon is shared with rich detail in James Donovan's book. The story is so exciting that it makes me want to go to the moon...

WAIT! I just went! Thank you, Mr. Donovan.

For my younger friends who are intrigued by outer space, I recommend Daring Dozen, The Twelve Who Walked on the Moon by Suzanne Slade. This picture book briefly shares a little about each mission to the moon from Apollo 11 through 17. Beautiful drawings and interesting facts will nurture future space explorers.
