This was a great book to read I read it with my son and his friends when they were learning about Rockets. The movie October Sky is great also (based on the book). Congratulations on your litsy milestone @BarbaraBB ! #wv #countryroadstakemehome #thinklocalgiveaway

TheAromaofBooks My grandparents grew up really close to Hickham's area of WV - Grandpa remembers playing his high school's basketball team. Watching October Sky with them was so interesting, to hear what they thought about how the movie compared the reality of their lives in a coal camp. 5y
