David Getz gives us his take on space travel. After given an assignment to draw her house from an unusual perspective Maxine decides to do her assignment from outer space!! The story gives some actual information about what some astronauts have to do, like wear diapers and put on thermal suits. The pictures also do a great job of leading the reader through the story. The takeoff part was my favorite. The author gives detailed descriptions of what is going on. Some of the pages are really wordy so this book isn't designed for younger kids to read on their own, but it would be a great read aloud for the classroom.
