A Tremendous Challenge: a Book Review

                                 By Alexander Patrick Barnes

      Space Busters: Race to the Moon by Phillip Wilkinson is a book about three astronauts who go to the moon. In Space busters we read about the details of the difficult obstacles they faced. The main characters are Collins, Aldrin, and Armstrong. 

      It was a tremendous challenge for the three astronauts to set foot on the moon and come back safely. In the trio there was Neil Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, and Michael Collins. They only had a fifty-fifty chance of returning alive. They had to deal with Extreme heat, moon germs and flammable moon dust. They had to dock with the landing craft very carefully or else they would crash. 

      I learned that an astronaut has to be brave and courageous. I recommend this book to anyone who likes space. This book has a lot of interesting facts. I thought it was very exciting.
