From the time Neil Armstrong took his first small steps and said his first words, he wanted to travel in space. Although everyone told him it was impossible, he never gave up. Tom Saunders' lilting lyrics tell the story of Armstrong's life, right up to the 'small step' and 'giant leap'. Brought to life by the award-winning illustrator Cynthia Nugent, his story will inspire children and their parents alike.

In language that is elegant, yet fun, this adventure invites the reader on an emotionally charged trip to the moon--from reminders of what one should pack on a trip to the moon, to the exciting countdown and lift-off.

Between April and July 1944, Truman Smith Flew thirty-five bombing missions over France and Germany. He was only twenty years old. Although barely adults, Smith and his peers worried about cramming a lifetime’s worth of experience into every free night, each knowing he probably would not survive the next bombing mission. Written with blunt honesty, wry humor, and insight, The Wrong Stuff is Smith’s gripping memoir of that time. In a new preface, the author comments with equal honesty and humor on the impact this book has had on his life.
