Looks interesting!
This has been bought for our grandson who is showing an interest in Science. He has still to receive it so I can't really comment on its content. I thought the outer cover looked a bit 'grey' in colour, as if it's been lying on a shelf for a little while, but I'll try and give it a discreet, gentle wipe before handing it over!

To infinity... and beyond!
Excellent book, if your child is at all interested get this, if they are not get this book anyway and they soon will be! Audio book also great, we’ve learnt a lot from this book ourselves, complex science explained really well without coming across as patronising or talking down, can’t recommend this book enough.

Good book, easy language. Could use some more pictures, but it already has a 9 year old excited to learn more.

Indispensable complément.
Indispensable complément à ce qui est enseigné classiquement dans nos écoles. Acheté pour ma nièce adolescente et curieuse pour lui permettre de se situer dans ce merveilleux cosmos .

Fun and engaging
This is a gem, I read it before giving to 11 yr old grandson who loves everything space. Easy to understand but does not talk down to kids. very engaging. Now i need to read more of his books.
