Just right for a 1st grader interested in space submitted by skiger on July 1, 2019, 12:30pm This had just the right amount of information about the Apollo 11 flight for my child who is interested in space, but can't sit through some of the other very text laden books about space. I think the fact that the information was broken up by the parallel story of the boy was very helpful in keeping interest up.

Interesting for preschooler submitted by yeestan on July 13, 2019, 11:56pm The preschooler enjoyed it, even though it was way more information than he can digest. It also brought up discussions on why the TV was in black and white, and what exactly is Tang.
