About the Book

He borrowed library books and read about astronauts walking in space, orbiting the earth, and flying around the moon. Every night the little boy hoped and hoped that one day astronauts would land on the moon. And then, one cloudless night, they did. . . . "Haddon captures the profound thrill of being witness to the moon landing better than any other picture book."--"School Library Journal"

      Used Very Good(2 Copies): Very Good 0152012850 Very good condition, minor wear. Almost like new except for sticker on inside cover. No other major marks or damage. Reading level, Ages 4-8. Hardcover, 32 pages, Harcourt Children's Books; 1st edition (August 1996). A British author recounts his boyhood fascination with the moon and with the rocketships and missions that preceded the first lunar landing. Haddon's text lyrically transports readers to that dramatic moment in 1969 when, in living rooms around the world, people saw men roving the moon's landscape. From the boy's dream of "rocketing across the cold, black miles and landing on crumbly rock" to the actual event of the two American astronauts "bouncing through the dust in the Sea of Tranquillity, " the author's measured tone weaves the aspirations of the heart with history. Full-bleed illustrations, softly textured as if seen through the scrim of time, interpret the text with judicious sentiment. 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Great customer service and a no problem, EZ return policy. Real people, real service, since 1981.
