Space Kids

An Introduction for Young Explorers

Space is all around us, but how much do we know? Where do we even begin …

Space Kids: An Introduction for Young Explorers is designed to inspire awe at the great big universe around us. Covering topics such as stars, planets, moons, alongside the basics of gravity and even how astronauts are able to eat and sleep in space; each page takes us through the complexities of the universe with a fresh and original style. This is a space book that not only teaches young explorers about what is out there but also serves as reminder about just how special we are here on planet Earth.

We begin with the enormity of the big bang. And travel from the big and inconceivable - slowly but surely getting smaller and smaller - until we reach the most spectacular thing in the universe: the tiny human who is holding Space Kids.

What People Say

"Space Kids would be good for children 5 or 6 and under with someone older reading it to them. The illustrations will keep them interested and they will be happy exploring the pictures and asking questions. For primary school-aged children, they should be able to read it themselves and search out more information to answer their questions. Thus this book will span a little larger age group than it seems at first."
