Does your kid love space? graphic novels? fun facts? Then A Day in the Life of an Astronaut, Mars, and the Distant Stars will surely appeal to them. In fact, they may just steal the book away from you before you get a proper look at it. (I may be speaking from experience here…)
A Day in the Life of an Astronaut, Mars, and the Distant Stars is just plain fun. You forget that you’re learning anything because it’s so engaging. The illustrations are humorous and the text accessible.
A Day in the Life of an Astronaut, Mars, and the Distant Stars is a great option for readers who are more visual learners and those who like flipping through books rather than reading cover-to-cover.
