"The U.S. may have put the first man on the moon, but it was the Soviet space program that made Valentina Tereshkova the first woman in space. It took years to catch up, but soon NASA's first female astronauts were racing past milestones of their own.

I bought this for my 12-year-old space-loving niece. I thought it was a little bit dense and uninteresting until Mary ended up in space.
