Reviews
“The budding astronaut in your family will be over the moon for this book! Author Halls presents a galaxy of facts in a clear question-and-answer format, complemented by photos illustrating all aspects of a journey to the moon and back. Meals from a tube? No thanks! Moon buggy? Yes, please!”
—Lucy Kubo, retired school library media specialist
“I grew up watching Apollo 11 land on the Moon. It was a great time in America, and I have vivid memories of that moment in time. Reading author Kelly Milner Hall's Apollo 11 Q&A with 175+ facts brought me back to that moment and more. It is a great read, and I highly suggest it for kids—and anyone looking to relive that amazing accomplishment and learn a whole lot more.”
—Mike Graf, children's book author
“Kelly Milner Halls is a master at writing for kids, especially those curious kids who might find long text blocks challenging. In these jam-packed pages are almost 200 bite-size facts, quotes, statistics, and stories about the space program, from the early race to get to the moon to the current and planned missions to Mars in which students reading this book may very well take part. The heart of the book showcases Apollo 11— the Columbia crew capsule, the LEM, the spacesuits, the training—so many marvelous aspects of the space program. This book is full of factoids that would make great writing prompts or jumping-off points for further research into STEM subjects, especially highlighting the many different career paths that contribute to the space program. It’s an excellent addition to any classroom or home library.”
