Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 4-7-Dell relates the eye-opening story of how the electrifying photo of Neil Armstrong standing on the Moon's surface beneath the Sun's harsh light was made, the immense technological effort that made the photo possible, and how the image came to change people's perceptions of our future in space. A case study in how a picture can be worth much, much more than a thousand words. (c) Copyright 2013. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
