Bookroo's summary

In a world where the smallest creatures dream the biggest, a brave mouse sets his sights on the moon. Following his transatlantic flight, this tiny adventurer faces cosmic challenges and boundless possibilities. As he builds his spacecraft, questions arise: Can he reach the stars, and what will he discover? This tale of imagination and innovation invites readers to explore the universe through the eyes of the smallest pioneer. The journey concludes with a glimpse into the history of human space exploration, from Galileo's revelations to the moon landing.

From the publisher

A long time ago a mouse learned to fly . . . and crossed the Atlantic.

But what happened next? Torben Kuhlmann’s stunning new book transports readers to the moon and beyond! On the heels of Lindbergh: The Tale of a Flying Mouse comes Armstrong: A Mouse on the Moon—where dreams are determined only by the size of your imagination and the biggest innovators are the smallest of all. The book ends with a brief non-fiction history of human space travel—from Galileo’s observations concerning the nature of the universe to man’s first steps on the moon.
