This book is targeted for older kids and it’s not a picture book, even though it appears like that. It has a lot of text and the topics are very advanced, more suited to middle grade children. But I liked it and will reintroduce it to my child once he is old enough.

the production value is really high. nice quality paper. loved the texture on the cover. the illustrations are amazing. text is spread out over the page which makes for easy reading. lots and lots of goo data on things outside our planet. great intro to space for toddlers!

I loved this book. The pictures were so vibrant and colorful and the information was thorough, but surprisingly easy to digest. My only qualm with this book is that I think there is a printing error on one of the pages, at least there was on my copy. In the section where they showed the constellations throughout the year, they had summer twice and skipped autumn. Other than that, I loved this book.

A whirl wind exploration of all things space, this is a fantastically informative book that is bursting with colour, energy and exiting information! So bold and interactive, it is sure to trigger awe and wonder in any child, and is told with such passion that it would certainly ignite a desire to find out more. Newman beautifully illustrates Walliman's writing, I think that any reader would struggle to enjoy the antics of Professor Astro Cat and the Mouse as they travel across the galaxies.
A perfect book to have in the classroom, the pair have struck a wonderful balance between basic level understanding of space, and enthusing children in more specialist knowledge. All of the way from planets to spaghettification (!!), there is no sense of dumbing down the information for the target market, all children are capable of learning more than what is 'expected' of them and can be the expert.
