Usborne – Look inside – Space

This is a great fun flap book packed with interesting information about space, and the amazing things that float through it – stars, moons, comets, and the planets of our solar system. Each double-page spread has a stunning colour illustration, and several flaps to lift to find out more about what’s going on in the scene – such as what goes on inside the International Space Station, how astronauts visited the Moon and what they did there, as well as the history of astronomy, from Galileo to the Hubble Space Telescope.

The facts are informative, perfect for those who are new to the subject of space, and use language that is straightforward and accessible for younger readers. Lots of sturdy flaps on every page gives the opportunity to dig deeper and learn a little more. Find out how stars and planets are made, why the moon seems to change shape, and what’s in the very middle of the Milky Way galaxy.
