This picture book biography is extremely well done. It is a story most adults know. What makes this one different is that the author made sure that Mike Collins got as much credit as Buzz Aldrin and Neal Armstrong. This book is better than other picture book biographies because at the end of the story, instead of regurgitating the story

LibrarianRyan in biographical information, this book expands on it, mentioning the space race, those who came before Apollo 11, and all the other people who helped make the mission a success. This book is the real success and I can‘t wait to see what subject the author tackles next. 2y
