Reviews
Gr 3–5—This title presents quick facts about space, ranging from the big bang theory to 20th-century space exploration and beyond. In the table of contents, the chapters are sectioned and color-coded to match the subject they belong to. Topics include galaxies, stars, rocket science, and more. Readers will benefit most from discussions of exoplanets, "Goldilocks" planets (so called for having just the right conditions to sustain life), and the possibilities for future observatories. A chapter on visible light may be too advanced for most readers, but the text is simple. Full-color pages with photographs and diagrams will appeal to a wide variety of students. Words in the glossary are printed in bold throughout the main text for ease of understanding. VERDICT An adequate, browsable selection for robust space collections.—Denise Moore, formerly at O'Gorman Junior High School, Sioux Falls, SD
