(1) 4-6 Illustrated by Zander Cannon & Kevin Cannon. This graphic novel highlights the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo space programs while contrasting them with the parallel Russian achievements, creating a palpable sense of suspense about the moon race. The black-and-white cartoons and panel layouts provide cohesion among the multiple settings, numerous characters, and technical information. An author's note explains how the story deviates from historical record. Reading list, websites.
