This is a cute introduction to Mercury for early primary students. Text is simple, but there are some good facts, especially in the sidebars and in the after pages. There is also a glossary and a short bibliography.

An entertaining yet informative look at the scientific errors of the past. Good balance of text and photos, just enough information on each topic to keep it interesting without overwhelming. Includes source notes, additional resources, index. Recommend for students grades 3 .

This book starts with a story of a soldier's crew being saved by two Tuskegee Airmen. It then goes to a history of African-Americans and the oath that got them to the skies. In the Air Force during World War II they were allowed to get into it, but they were segregated from the White people. They had certain flight schools for the Black people. One of them was in the city of Tuskegee, Alabama. The people who came from this school formed the Tuskegee Airmen. These airmen went on to be very important fighters in many battles and helped the Allies win the war.

In my opinion it is a interesting book at first but it can get boring. It tells the same story of slavery and racism for what seems like way too many times because everyone should know this story by now. Some facts that I didn't know about was that they purposely made segregation a rule. Stories like the one in the beginning gave some really good insight into these airmen and what they did. But the story on story should have only been a small recap at most. Everyone knows the ending of World War II so it ends with the war ending and everyone who lived went home. In my opinion it isn't the best but it is okay.

A great book for older kids. It about old science ideas were proven wrong by scientists.
