Mae and her family build a rocket ship to sit in while they watch the real landing on the moon.  Mae decides she want to be an astronaut.  Her grandfather supports her in her dream.  This was a cute book, but what got me were the pictures.  They were beautiful.  It also has a great message of follow your dreams.
