The first American woman to fly in space is the 35th hero in the New York Times bestselling picture book biography series for ages 5 to 9.

From childhood, Sally Ride was a daring adventurer, and her parents encouraged her to pursue the things she loved. Those things included science and math, fast rides, and the stars in the sky. Eventually her passions and her hard work led her to NASA, where she became the country's first female astronaut, inspiring generations of young people to follow their own dreams of space exploration.

This friendly, fun biography series inspired the PBS Kids TV show Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum. One great role model at a time, these books encourage kids to dream big.

Included in each book are-

A timeline of key events in the hero's history Photos that bring the story more fully to life Comic-book-style illustrations that are irresistibly adorable Childhood moments that influenced the hero Facts that make great conversation-starters A virtue this person embodies- This book highlights Sally Ride's belief that there's no limit to what you can achieve.

You'll want to collect each book in this dynamic, informative series!
