'Clever Cogz: The Book of Space Rockets' by Neil Clark is a picture book for young readers to teach them about rockets and space exploration.

Join Cogz the Robot Dod and his friends to learn about space travel. Starting with rocket designs in the 1960s, the reader will learn about rockets like the Saturn V, how rockets are made, and how rockets have been used. From the lunar landing to robots on Mars and the space station, the book is full of fun, colorful drawings to get readers excited about space.

This book is told from primarily an American viewpoint, but there are a couple nods to other designs. The illustrations are fun. With the upcoming 50th anniversary of the moon landing, this is a well timed book.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - QEB, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

The Book of Space Rockets is a colourful and educational book that teaches children about the mechanics of rockets. I loved how colourful the drawings were without being bright and obnoxious. The writing is simple and easy to understand, putting the basics in without going on and on and becoming confusing. The questions at the end were wonderful, as they take a cute little book and turn it into a learning experience.

My sixteen month old son who loves all things that go vroom loved the pictures, this would be a great book for children to grow with.

Thank you #netgalley for giving me a copy of #TheBookOfSpaceRockets to review. This nonfiction book about space and rockets is great for K-6th grade students. The formatting is perfect for keeping kids interested. There is a lot of information packed into this book, but it's presented in a way that makes it easy to digest. The illustrations and diagrams add to the learning and will help teachers explain text features. I will look into buying this for my library.
