Product Description
Blast-off!Up into the shy goes the space shuttle.Into orbit, the astronauts get a taste of ready-to-eat food, experience zero gravity, go for space walks, and even fix a satellite.It's fun to fly aboard the shuttle...and then come back to earth.`A young girl declares her longing to `fly on the shuttle into outer space.'The familiar acts of eating, sleeping, and working become intense and special as she and the rest of the crew go about their business.The illustrations positively glow in this simple, lyrical picture book that will have nearly everyone off and flying.' —SLJ.

 extremely juvenile January 6, 2009
If your child is precocious, this book will not do the job. It is on the level of "See Spot run."
 Easy read July 4, 2008
My 5 year old son was able to read the book by himself after I read it to him the first time. It is a very easy book to read and wonderfully illustrated. We loved it
Love this Book! April 15, 2008
This book has been a favorite of my family's for 20 years. I give it to all of my friends who have little boys. I only wish that it were available in hard cover again.
I want to be an Astronaut book January 19, 2008
My 3.5 year old twins absolutely love this book. We have to read it over and over again.
Great early childrens book with colorful and simple illustrations December 30, 2007
Byron Barton has created another great children's book with colorful illustrations and simple text. The rhythm of the text makes this book clever and musical. It was a fovorite of my son for several years. I now purchase this book for other children and a shower gift for expecting parents. As a sppech language pathologist, I want to foster the child's love of communication through words ans illustrations.
