As part of my re-scan project I present in much fuller detail Arrow at America's Spaceport. This is one of the stranger children's books about space and seems like it was a product of trying to cash in on the "space race." It is about a famous racehorse's visit to Cape Kennedy. filled with facts and photos about the space program. It also has a number of pictures of the horse superimposed on space pictures.
Scarboro, Pat. Arrow at America’s Spaceport: The Children’s Book on Space. Cape Canaveral, FL: Pat Scarboro. (96 p.) 1966.
It was a way to buy a child something about the space program, I guess. Alternatively it would appeal to boys and girls because of spaceships AND horses.
SANTA IS COMING EARLY NEXT WEEK. HAVE YOU BEEN GOOD?
