I'm reading Rocket Boys. I chose this book because i saw the movie 'October Sky' when I was younger and always wanted to read the corresponding book.

Rocket Boys was a great movie and book. It is about a young man who lives in a town that produces coal. He decides he does not want to work in the coal mines when he is older so he decides that he wanted to build rockets like his idol Dr. Werher Von Braun. October Sky is the title of the movie corresponding to Rocket Boys.

I loved the movie October Sky! I used to watch it all the time when I was little, if only I had known that Rocket Boys was based off of that. Instead I chose One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
