Description: "Modern-day kids Annie and Nico go on a magical history tour back to the '60s to witness man's first steps on the moon. In the midst of the Cold War between the USSR (Russia) and the USA, conquering the moon was a major goal for these two countries. In less than a decade, and even though no earthling had ever left the planet, men were sent into space in 1961 and walked on the moon in 1969. Learn about the efforts made to explore the final frontier...with Annie and Nico as your helpful guides as they blast off into space!"--
Brief description: Fabrice Erre, born in 1973 in France, is an author and teacher of comics, as well as an accomplished historian. Through his comics, he seeks above all to parody human behavior, teasing out our little personal weaknesses and our vulnerability to manipulation by the masses. Most recently, putting his history background to good use, Erre has teamed up with artist Sylvain Savoia to create the series THE THREAD OF HISTORY, set on bringing the past to vivid life for younger readers.
