Yesterday was the anniversary of the First Walk on the Moon

Enslow's new elementary book, Weird But True Space Facts, has a photo of the footprint. As the description says, since there is no rain on the moon, nor any wind, that footprint is still there after more than 40 years!

This title has a lot of great trivia information. Did you know that the dark areas on the moon were made from lava? The lava flowed out of volcanoes on the moon, and then ran into low spots, creating those dark areas.

Available in both library and paperback editions, this series also contains titles about animal homes, food, human body facts, rocks, and weather.
