Description

Sally Ride was a trailblazing astronaut who broke barriers in the male-dominated field of space exploration. Born in California, she pursued her passion for science, earning a Doctor of Physics degree and becoming one of the first women to study the subject.

In 1983, Sally made history by becoming the first American woman to fly in space. Her achievements inspired a new generation of scientists and engineers, and she went on to co-found Sally Ride Science, an organization dedicated to promoting better science education.

This inspiring picture book features stylish and quirky illustrations, as well as extra facts and a biographical timeline at the back. It's part of the Little People, BIG DREAMS series, which explores the lives of outstanding individuals who achieved great things despite the challenges they faced.
