The Moon Over Star by Dianna Hutts Aston

A beautiful story that recalls the historic event of the first moon landing.  Mae is a little girl and is the main character who gives a recount of the time the Eagle was launched into space, heading for the moon.  From praying for the astronauts at church, to building a play spaceship, to watching Neil Armstrong on TV walking on the moon, to talking with her grandpa, Mae tells of the events during that exciting time.  A great story that will keep readers interested while teaching them about the first moon landing and the impact it had to people around the world.
