We’ve been reading through Atomic Adventure but it’s a bit heavy going for 4&6 year olds, even at one page a night, so I thought we’d try the board books. I feel like this worked a bit better for them - the information is actually at no lower a level, but I think having less info per page made a difference.

This was a very cool book full of really need information. Pictures were clean and easy to understand. I'm excited the circle back with the baby when he's a little older so we can talk about it in more detail.
