description: In this simple step-by-step instructional picture book learn how you too can visit the moon on your bicycle! All you need is a very long garden hose a very large slingshot a borrowed spacesuit and a bicycle . . . and plenty of imagination. With tongue firmly in cheek Caldecott Medal winner Mordicai Gerstein outlines the steps needed in glorious comic book-style panels and a deadpan voice leaving nothing out: the food you'll eat how to deal with loneliness in space how to water those sunflower seeds once they're plantedeven how to deal with the media attention back home after a successful trip. An inspired work of whimsy How to Bicycle to the Moon to Plant Sunflowers is a spacefaring adventure for daydreamers and a starter kit for the imagination.
