Earthrise: Apollo 8 and the Photo That Changed the World

32 pp. | Owlkids | October, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77147-316-3 $19.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Christy Lundy. Apollo 8 was the first mission to orbit the moon, but it also gave us the first photograph of Earth from space. In lyrical picture-book text, Gladstone explains how the now-iconic image, taken by astronaut Bill Anders in 1968, conveyed a message of unity to a world in turmoil. Lundy's stylish illustrations feature the hues and fashions of the time; the original Earthrise photo is included at book's end.
