  • Loved by a 5-yr-old
I bought this book for my 5 year old grand nephew, whose dad is a career USAF/Space Force man. The kid loves it, never tires of the pictures and hearing it read to him.

  • Excellent book
This was a requested gift for a Free Small Library. They were very happy to get it along with a couple of other Astronomy books. I was equally happy to be able to find it for them. Book was in excellent condition, nice illustrations and clear text. Arrived as promised.

  • Excellent for a budding Astronaut
Purchased for a gifted child who is a self-declared space enthusiast. He is in first grade, but his reading is advanced and he had no trouble reading this book. The pictures are engaging enough for young children, and the facts are great for older learners.
