What is the Sun made of? How did astronauts get to the Moon and what did they find there? For children beginning to read on their own, this book is an exciting introduction to space with easy-to-read text written with the help of a reading expert and vivid, full colour illustrations and photographs on every page. Includes internet links to carefully selected websites with video clips and activities.
Easily understood, but still jam-packed with facts. * The Independent *
The images are lovely and big, with very clear accompanying text, and each page also has a small illustration with a 'did you know?' type fact to go with the chapter. The glossary at the back is also great as he can work out the main word, and then go on to tell me all about it which is a fun memory exercise. * All Things Blog and Beautiful *
This is suitable for children in KS1/5yr+ but my inquisitive 4 year old son has enjoyed going through the book and listening to it as much as his 6 year old sister. The book is internet-linked which provides games and activities linked to each topic. The relevant web address is shown within each topic. There are also links to websites for related animations, games and downloadable pictures which could be used for homework. * Him, Me and Three *
