Explains all about the universe and what it contains. Great images-- in 3D! Comes with 3D glasses-- the kids loved looking at this one. Pretty cool!

I'm not sure if this was the Discovering the Universe book by Peter Grego I just read. My version was published by Scholastic and contained synthetic Mars sand and glow-up constellations. I bought it at the Scholastic book fair years ago when I was in third grade I believe.
It was a short and informative read with beautiful illustrations, some of them even 3-D. I learned things I already knew about the universe and a few new facts. I especially appreciated the image of the Pyramid of the Moon, a site I had recently seen in Mexico. If I had opened the packet and read this book years ago like I was supposed to (I have a quirk where I want to preserve things for as long as possible, so I didn't open the packet with the book inside for years, which was stupid), I wouldn't have appreciated that reference as much as I hadn't gone to Mexico yet.
This is a great book for kids about the universe and adults like me who like reading nonfiction that is short and gets to the point!
