In July 1969, the world witnessed an awe-inspiring historical
achievement when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans
to set foot on the moon. For the young protagonist of this lyrical and
hopeful picture book, that landing is something that inspires her to
make one giant step toward all of the possibilities that life has to
offer.
Caldecott Honor-winning painter Jerry Pinkney and the poetic Dianna
Hutts Aston create a moving tribute to the historic Apollo 11 Mission,
just in time to commemorate its upcoming fortieth anniversary.
