Reviews
Readers with a fascination for outer space will appreciate the details in this series that focuses specifically on the space environment and how humans continue to adapt to it. . . .Clay enhances the reading experience by injecting specific details that stand out on the page, such as including the nickname "vomit comets" when describing the airplanes used in weightlessness training (Astronaut). . . .A welcome addition to elementary astronomy collections.-- "School Library Journal"
This series is a wonderful collection for a classroom or school library. The books focus on what it is like to travel and live in space. The author uses simple informative text for first through second graders with amazing photographs that clearly illustrate the experience.-- "NSTA Recommends"
