121. Neil Armstrong and Nat Love Space Cowboys


Neil Armstrong and Nat Love Space Cowboys. Steve Sheinkin. 2019. 176 pages. [Source: Library]

First sentence: One summer day a spaceship appeared in the sky above Texas. A teenage cowboy named Nat Love gazed up at the craft. It looked like a giant metal spider with smoke shooting from its feet. Love rubbed his eyes, sure he was dreaming.

Premise/plot: Neil Armstrong and Nat Love Space Cowboys is the third book in the Time Twisters series by Steve Sheinkin. Ever since Abby and Doc "broke" history in the first book, things have been getting a little--more than a little, to be fair--mixed up in their history books. This latest adventure has the lunar module, Eagle, landing on a Texas ranch in 1869 instead of on the moon! Can history be fixed???

My thoughts: I enjoyed this third adventure. Abby and Doc get to visit several different times and locations. (But not the moon!) If you have young readers who enjoyed the other books in the series, I would definitely recommend. The books are silly and packed with small adventures.
