''The Man Who Walked Between the Towers'' is a children's picture book written and illustrated by American Mordicai Gerstein. Published in 2003, the book recounts the heart-stopping achievement of Philippe Petit, a French man who, on an August morning in 1974, walked, lay, knelt and danced on a tightrope wire between the roofs of the twin towers of the World Trade Center, a quarter mile above the ground. Gerstein won the 2004 Caldecott Medal for his illustrations.〔American Library Association: ("2004, Mordicai Gerstein" ), Caldecott Medal Winners, 1938 - Present], American Library Association, URL accessed 27 May 2009.〕 ==Description== The book was adapted as an animated short film of the same name in 2005 by Michael Sporn for Weston Woods Studios.〔"The Man Who Walked Between the Towers".
