Title: Moonwalk; The First Trip to the Moon
Author: Judy Donnelly
Genre: Non-fiction
This non-fiction book details the information and events surrounding the first moon landing, from the names of the astronauts to the way that their rocket worked. The history of NASA and space travel is also explained in this book in terms that are easy for children to understand and question.
I believe that a non-fiction book such as this is a great format for children to approach important and factual information. The book is broken down into a short chapter format that makes accessing specific information from the book easier. As the study of the solar system is a third grade standard course of study course objective, this book would connect with planetary and space studies dealt with during that unit.
