As commander of the International Space Station a while back Canadian Chris Hadfield made quite a splash. Many people followed his Twitter account. He recorded a song with the Bare Naked Ladies. He was, in Canada at least, a raving success.
Since arriving back on terra firma Hadfield has turned out to be an author as well. I someday intend to read
An Astronaut's Guide To Life On Earth. Recently I herd him being interviewed on the radio about a
book of pictures he had taken while on the ISS. Today while grocery shopping I saw it and so we picked it up.
Then after lunch I sat down and looked through the whole book. I will look through it again. The book is broken down by continent and Hadfield gives some commentary on each picture. I think it is a great book to find in many living rooms. And also a great book to be in school classrooms and church libraries. It helps us to see the world differently...
