Spaceman

Spaceman is a wonderful story that captivated me on a journey through the life of an astronaut in a way that I have never experienced before. Spoken from the heart and soul of a big kid with a bigger imagination and spirit, Mike speaks to the kid in all of us: to dream big; to take big steps; to undertake big challenges. And to persevere through it all. This is the quintessential book for any kid, big or small, who desires to be involved in space exploration in some manner; whether as an astronaut, an astronomer or an educator. Mike makes those dreams seem more attainable through his experiences and revolutions. This is a 5 star quality read and good for all ages, although parents should read to the younger ones and explain its themes.
