JULY 20, 1969 -FIRST MOON LANDING

Today's New York Time is rife with Moon Landing stories. In particular is a feature on Children's Books! I think every library in America should carry these titles to propagate significant history for future generations.

Here's the titles:

1. "GO FOR THE MOON"  A Rocket, A Boy and the first Moon Landing by Chris Galls. ( Roaring Book, 48pp., ($19.99; ages 5 to 10.)
2. "MOONSHOT: THE FLIGHT OF ALPOLLO 11 (Richard Jackson/Atheneum, 55pp.; ages4 to 10.
3. "A COMPUTER CALLED KATHERINE: HOW KATHERINE JOHNSON HELPED PUT AMERICA ON THE MOON (Little Brown, 40pp $18.99; ages 4 to 8.
4. "THE ASTRONAUT WHO PAINTED THE MOON:THE TRUE STORY OF ALAN BEAN" (ORCHARD/SCHOLASTIC, 40 PP., $17.99 AGES 4 TO 8.)

Also, this collection would make a great library for our youth and great gifts!
