First edition of Aldrin’s journey to the moon. Quarto, original illustrated boards, illustrated throughout. Boldly signed by both Buzz Aldrin and Wendell Minor on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket.

This picture book is Buzz Aldrin's story, in his words. Wendell Minor's gorgeous paintings evoke the wonder of space exploration for young readers. Becoming an astronaut took more than education, discipline, and physical strength. It took years of determination and believing that any goal was possible—from riding a bike alone across the George Washington Bridge at age ten to making a footprint on the moon.
