Fly High, John Glenn: The Story of an American Hero by Kathleen Krull

3.0

Fly High, John Glenn begins when John was a young boy and tells us how he became the first American to orbit the Earth.

This is a lengthy picture book, so if you're a teacher don't expect to read it all at once.

There's excellent information in this book, but it's a bit dry. I know my students (5th graders) wouldn't find this book engaging. I think there are a lot of unnecessary details included in this book that doesn't make this book a good read-aloud.
