Sally Ride: Space Pioneer

Rating:
Summary: an inspirational story
Review: If you have school age girls (or boys for that matter) they should read this book. If they have an interest in science, its a must read. I could feel the vibration at liftoff

Rating:
Summary: perfect for middle schoolers
Review: One of my students discovered this book and loved it. It's now on my "great reads" list--books that every student will enjoy. The book moves fast and is at just the right comprehension level, without skipping any of the science. Sally Ride is truly an inspiration. The cover's a little blah and the photos are black and white, which may put off some kids, but once they start reading, they won't stop.
