Jennefer@SSA Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) I am trying to finish up buying our last bit of books to go with SOTW 4 this year. I live 5 minutes from Johnson Space Center here in Houston so I am cracking up that this is one of the last chapters I have to research. :tongue_smilie: Woulda thought I would have had this one nailed at the very start! Anyway, what are your favs on this subject? This is for a nine/ten year old boy if that matters in any recommendations. :) Edited October 25, 2010 by Jennefer@SSA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missouri Okie Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Our study of the space race is set to happen in about a month. I haven't read either of these books, but have read ABOUT them on blogs. This is the Way to the Moon by Sasek http://www.amazon.com/This-Way-Moon-Miroslav-Sasek/dp/0789318423 The Moon Over Star by Aston http://www.amazon.com/Moon-Over-Dianna-Hutts-Aston/dp/0803731078/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1287970246&sr=1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennefer@SSA Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 I have been doing a bit more research and found 2 books that look wonderful. One Small Step: Celebrating the First Men on the Moon This book says ages 4-8 and is written in the form of a scrapbook. I am so excited about this book! I think it will be perfect for the my youngers. T-Minus: Race to the Moon And this book looks perfect for my older son. It is written like a comic book and he LOVES comic books. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
