The events surrounding the space shuttle Columbia disaster did not look the same to everyone involved. Readers can step back in time and into the shoes of a news reporter, a potential future astronaut, and a family as readers act out scenes and compare and contrast various perspectives. Written with simplified, considerate text to help struggling readers, books in this series are made to build confidence as readers engage and read aloud. Includes a table of contents, glossary, index, author biography, sidebars, and timeline.
