Mission Control, This Is Apollo: The Story of the First Voyages to the Moon by Andrew Chaikin

4.0

Super fun book about the Apollo missions for older kids. One of the best parts is the illustrations are by Alan Bean, an actual Apollo astronaut. He gives them kind of weird captions, but they are really beautiful. I'd say this book is in league with Mark Kurlansky's [b:World Without Fish|9423723|World Without Fish|Mark Kurlansky|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348451817s/9423723.jpg|14308139].
