Child Atlas: Space

The Children's Space Atlas takes children on a voyage of Discovery from the creation of the stars and planets to the latest findings from probes and Satellites, states Robbin Kerrod on the top cover of this black bg book. Easy to follow star charts showing major constellation, story of the creation of the stars and planets told in words and pictures and exploring the whole universe is so much fun and interesting while kids learn the mystery of nature. The IMAX movies on space are sure thrilling to watch but the book is indepth knowledge and exploring page to page! It's divided into 5 sections:Section 1: Introduction on Earth and space and boundless universeSection 2: The solar system - The sun, moon, planets, Asteroids and meteoroids, comets, etcSection 3: The night sky i.e. the heavens, constellationsSection 4: Stars and GalaxiesSection 5: Exploring space, Telescopes, space satellites, space flights, exploring moon and so on.Now that its so interesting, I remember me registering mine and my family's name to go to Mars through the nasa website and the names would be included in a DVD that went to Mars with Rover Opportunity - Its so thrilling to explore the Space Atlas by many kids with hopes to book a flat on Mars some day! A good Pick and dreamy explorations too!

I am in the 3rd grade and I got this book from our school library (Plains Ele.) in Timberville, VA. I like the part where it shows all the missions on the moon. I like the real life pictures and graphics. I want to be a scientist when I grow up and would like to observe the planets and stars. I picked this book up because of the pictures I saw on the cover. I thought it would give me information on planets, stars, galaxies and the universe, and it did. That's about all I would like to say. Please tell the author he did a great job.
