Review

You know that child who comes in looking for books on planes and flying? But they also want a something about space flight? Well this is the book for them! In this beautifully illustrated book you are taken from early development of flight and planes, through space flight, the special computer chips invented just for the apollo missions and everything in between and beyond! There are pictures of the Wright Brothers, Charles Lindbergh, early passenger planes, Robert Goddard and his early rockets, and so much more! This is a great reference book for any library!

Overall Book Score: excellent
