With vibrant, historically accurate paintings by Wendell Minor, this extraordinary picture book--the first by one of the Apollo 11 astronauts--documents the journey Aldrin made from childhood that eventually led him to achieve his dream and walk on the Moon.
This is the story of how Buzz\'s came true..
We all have our own dreams.
It took years of determination and believing that any goal was possible--from riding a bike alone across the George Washington Bridge at age ten to making a footprint on the moon.
Becoming an astronaut took more than education, discipline, and physical strength.
Wendell Minor\'s gorgeous paintings evoke the wonder of space exploration for young readers.
This picture book is Buzz Aldrin\'s story, in his words.
It began the day he was born.
But the journey didn\'t begin when he stepped on board Apollo 11 that fateful day in July 1969.
Perfect for the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing in summer 2019! It\'s been fifty years since Buzz Aldrin walked on the Moon.
