Sandy Springs Reads Event: Big Thinkers Rocket Launch
Sandy Springs Reads, Sandy Springs’ first annual “One Book, One City” series of events, aims to promote literacy while building a sense of community. Sandy Springs Reads events will engage community members in discussions and activities around a common book.
The 2012 selection is Homer Hickam's autobiographical work, Rocket Boys.
This event will feature Big Thinkers discussing the past, present and future of space travel. Children, ages 7-12 years old, will learn about propulsion, parts of the rocket, launch safety and how space travel has affected our life on Earth.
