WHEN KIDS TAKE OVER NASA was the winner of ForeWord Reviews 2011 Book of the Year Award Finalist. As a finalist for ForeWord Reviews' 2011 Book of the Year, WHEN KIDS TAKE OVER NASA was on display at the Book Expo of America, the American Library Association Annual Conference and Exhibition and at the international book shows in Beijing and Moscow later in the year.



WHEN KIDS TAKE OVER NASA follows five bright students on what begins as a school assignment and turns into an all-out mission to get America back into space! Grant, Christina, Kendall, Tica, and Jeremy visit the Johnson Space Center only to find it "mothballed and cocooned." When an ex-employee gives them a key, they enter the building and take control of the center!

When some unexpected helpers show up, the kids discover a new kind of physics, NASA secrets, the possibility of a real rocket launch on their watch, and that one of them has gone missing in a true "Houston, we have a problem!" scenario. Are they in over their heads? Absolutely. Sound out-of-this-world? Just wait to read about what happens after the kids take charge!
