(4) 4-6 Basic text summarizes the key events in John Glenn's life, leading to his historic flight aboard Friendship 7, while sidebar information (in very small type) provides more details; in some cases, readers are expected to have prior knowledge of historical events they aren't likely to have learned about yet. Bold acrylic paintings effectively capture the excitement of their subject's life.
