I don’t read a lot of non-fiction books myself but when I saw this book came up I had to request, as I know how much my daughter loves to learn about space.
This book is colourful and very fun, with questions children would ask like the main title Am I Made of Stardust? And Why do People say the moon is made of Cheese? It answers every question with facts and explanations whilst making it enjoyable to read with children.
I loved that there were try at home exercises too, which I know I will be doing with my daughter at some point, especially the make your own rainbow experiment.
Overall, a perfect non-fiction book for any young scientist that enjoys learning about space. -
Suitable for children with excellent illustrations
This is a Well presented scientific facts expertly written for children. Wonderfully Engaging. -
I think this may possibly be one of the most beautiful books macie owns! From cover to cover this book is filled with colour and illustrations that are so eye catching. Every page has had Macie so excited!
This is the perfect book for any child who is curious about space or who loves reading fact. Macie loves to learn, so this book has been perfect for her! It’s the perfect book to read with your child, I’ve learnt things from it too! Each fact is in its own space on the page too, so it’s easy to read and not too much writing on each page like some fact books.
It can be picked up and read as and when you want to learn about certain things (or if your like macie, read cover to cover from start to finish 🤣) This will be a book that we keep for a very long time to re read!
