Team Moon

For young people, not yet born at the time of the moon landing, this book is a must read. Filled with historical photos, and based on thorough research in the NASA archives, this presents many of the challenges behind the scene of the successful trip to the moon in 1969. Written by Catherine Thimmesh, this won the Sibert Award in 2007, as well as being selected for Best Books for Young Adults, an Orbis Pictus Honor, and was selected by NCTE for their list of Best Language Arts books for that year. It's a winner all around.
