Even as an adult, the concept of space is totally mind-boggling. With time measured in billions of years and space in trillions of miles, it's no wonder that we find it so hard to get our minds around the notion of outer space.
Space Record Breakers looks at the wonder of space and is bursting with easy-to-read facts focusing half on the natural wonders of space and half on the history (and future) of humankind's exploration. What's the biggest known planet? The hottest star? The most intrepid astronaut? The first woman in space? The biggest volcano in the solar system? You can find out infinite facts and stats within its pages.
Packed with pictures and short texts, it's perfect for even reluctant readers to dig into, to learn all about everything that you may have ever considered about space, and a whole lot more. Meteor showers, animals in space, telescopes used, supernovas, dwarf planets, volcanoes in the solar system, asteroid strikes, ... even as a grown-up reading along, there is plenty to learn !
It's a great starting point for those interested in space, with plenty of ideas for things to go looking up online for a more in-depth explanation. There are lots of things that lead to questions that even I didn't have the answers to, but luckily, internet can help parents out !
It's a fascinating book that the whole family will enjoy reading through.
