Summary: We're adults and we couldn't stop reading it!
Review: My husband, who is from Japan, reads only 4x4 magazines and Japanese comics, yet, he read this book from start to finish. The book is written for kids 8-12, but I found it very entertaining and well written. This would be great for a kid who is interested in science (or even, not interested... it may spur their interest). For example, a couple of the topics are "True or False: Astronauts grow taller in space" and "Do Saturns Rings have Sheep?" The illustrations are fun and there's some nice space photos. The book is well organized with a timeline in the back, as well as a glossary. It's an easy enjoyable read. The added bonus was that we looked really smart when we were watching Jeopardy with some friends and we both blew through all of the questions in the space category ;-)
