This was an amazing coming-of-age book, similar in many regards to Stephen King's novella, The Body. That was later turned into the movie, Stand By Me.
Rocket Boys / October Sky is based on a true story, and it's well worth the read. The science of rockets, the lives of Appalachian coal miners, and the dreams of teenagers in the late 1950's are real and captivating. I highly recommend this book!
