Title:  Christa McAuliffe: Teacher in Space
Author:  Corrine J. Naden and Rose Blue
Reviewer:   Sidney J. '09
Christa Macauliffe enters a contest for teachers and the winner gets to go on a real space mission.  She wins the contest.  On the day she is supposed to go into space, her flight is canceled because of the cold weather.  Then on the day it is rescheduled, it is still cold, but the decision is made to take off anyway.  There is a problem with the rings freezing on the spaceship and something bad happens.  This book is very interesting because it gives a lot of facts and information about Christa Macauliffe's life and about the day the Challenger lifts off.
