Neil Armstrong's journey to the moon is the focus of the fifteenth picture book in the New York Times bestselling

series of biographies about heroes.

This friendly, fun biography series focuses on the traits that made our heroes great--the traits that kids can aspire to in order to live heroically themselves. Each book tells the story of one of America's icons in a lively, conversational way that works well for the youngest nonfiction readers and that always includes the hero's childhood influences. At the back are an excellent timeline and photos.

This volume tells the story of Neil Armstrongfrom his childhood on a farm to a career as an engineer and pilot and how he became the first person on the moon. All of the small steps he took in life-even his failures-led up to his steps on the moon.
