To the Stars!: The First American Woman to Walk in Space

Kathy Sullivan wanted to go everywhere. She loved blueprints and maps. She loved languages and the ocean. She didnâ€™t like the question, â€œWhat do you want to be when you grow up?â€ She wanted to explore and do exciting things that girls werenâ€™t supposed to be able to do. Only men had the exciting jobs.
Â
Kathy liked fishing and swimming; flying planes and studying science. Thatâ€™s what she liked and thatâ€™s what she decided to do with her life. She followed her heart and eventually became a NASA astronaut and the first woman to walk in space. Kathy wanted to see the whole world and so she did: from space!
Â
Backmatter includes further information about Dr. Sullivan and her career, as well as other famous firsts made by women astronauts.
