Fascinating book on rockets and spaceships. I learned a lot of what happens when a rocket goes into space as well as other vessels, manned and unmanned. The drawings are great to show what happens. I liked the information given. This is worth reading even as an adult because it puts rockets into simple language and pictures. It is interesting. I wish I would have spent more time as a kid watching the blast-offs and touch downs of the rockets and the astronauts back in the 60's instead of moaning about it. ( )
