About the author

I wrote my first book when I was 8 years old. I glued photos of my cats in a blank book and wrote about them, too. Now I am an internationally-published children's author commended by the Library of Congress for my work encouraging children to read.
I write in a room between a deli and an art gallery on a small town street. I can see families walking by, and I can hear children laughing and playing. It helps me to remember what exactly I'm doing this for - creating books for families all over the world to use together, and helping children to love words.

Out of the recent children’s space books I’ve read, this one seemed geared toward a slightly older audience, which made for a nice change of pace. It was still a survey of space in general (covering the universe, our solar system, and space travel) but it got a little bit more in depth. The layout was not overwhelming, the photos and illustrations were helpful, and the information was conveyed well. I think I even learned a few new things, which hasn’t been easy since most of the books cover about the same information.

Wonderfully detailed illustrations of many of the rockets, station and suits worn by the space people. It really is chock full of short bites of information. One can spend a lot of time looking, reading and thinking.
