Neil Armstrong's journey to the moon is the focus of the 15th entry in the New York Times best-selling series of biographies about heroes.

This friendly, fun biography series focuses on the traits that made our heroes great - the traits that kids can aspire to in order to live heroically themselves. Each audiobook tells the story of one of America's icons in a lively, conversational way that works well for the youngest children and that always includes the hero's childhood influences. This entry tells the story of Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon.

Disclaimer: I’ve written the same review to almost all the books on this series. My daughter and son loves them.Been purchasing the whole series for a few months now. Super easy readings for kids, even for the 20-min trip between house and school. Interesting lives, and you can later discuss the story with the kids. I have found that most of them (stories) stick to their minds, even recalling full names and events a few weeks/months later.

My grandsons and I have really enjoyed reading this book about Neil Armstrong. It has been delightful to see their excitement to learn about his life and being an astronaut. The book explains how Neil Armstrong did things in his life to help him become what he wanted to be. It is a great learning tool.

We love this book series and this one does not disappoint. The emphasis on humility, hard work, and perseverance is outstanding. Neil Armstrong’s biography is told in an engaging way with great illustrations. My 5 year old loves it!

I just received this yesterday and read it to my 6 yr old son. My son is obsessed with space, had a rocket scientist as a grandpa and already wants to be an engineer. I not only love the illustrations in this book, but it is so well written. I actually thought it would be a much simpler book because of the cover, but it had a lot of information about Neil Armstrong and was so very inspirational! I darn nearly cried at the end! No joke!!! Love this and will probably have to order the other biography books by this author!

The book was extremely costly and it is not worth for the cost.
Nothing is there for the kids to follow or accept as a role model.

I find these fairly thin and short booklet expensive but the quality makes up for it.
This book is very attractively illustrated and contains a well-told storyline that children can relate to and that grown up will enjoy.
The colourful hard covered booklet is simply presented in an excellent manner. .

Our daughter is a little older than the target audience I guess, and at 9 years of age already into more serious literature. Nevertheless she adores this books that we gave her as a birthday present. She has also been reading it to her younger brother - who has been similarly fascinated.
She has some affinity with the topic of the Apollo moon missions as the learned about the first moonlanding at school.
Moreover we recently watched Apollo 13, in which Neil makes an appearance! - a movie that got her on the edge of her seat.

I’m quite intrigued by the range of topics in this series, and so our children will be treated on more of these books.
The only thing is that the amount of books in the series is not that extensive yet.
