I WAS THERE: FIRST ON THE MOON
by Barbara Hehner
illustrated by Greg Ruhl  

Page Excerpt For the first time in history, people could witness explorers making their great discovery as live pictures were beamed back to Earth via a TV camera. This fascinating book tells the story of those intrepid space adventurers, both from their own perspectives and through the eyes of their children. Only two men could make history, but millions could watch - including eleven year old Janice Aldrin. With First On the Moon, readers will also discover what it's like to be there: both on the moon with the astronauts and back home with the witnesses. Many important developments in space exploration that have occured since are also included. Back to I WAS THERE main page
