This is an easy non-fiction for very young children about the eight day Apollo II mission to the moon in July 1969.  Written with rhymes and descriptive vocabulary, each word is chosen carefully and sparingly to tell the reader or listener this exciting story.   The illustrations are cartoonish with action detail that will interest young readers.  At the end, the Author’s Note gives a summary of events of the mission and explains with more detail than the narrative of the main story.  There is also an actual photo from NASA of the lunar module ascent from the moon to the command module with the earth looking tiny on the horizon.  The bibliography page at the end lists books and kid-friendly websites for more information.
