From the shocking launch of the Russian satellite Sputnik to the triumphant splashdown of Apollo 11, John Rocco answers every possible question about this world-altering mission. Your young explorers will want to pore over every page in this comprehensive chronicle detailing the grandest human adventure of all time! Ages 10 and up. 256pp.
