Why we like it at Happy Little Tadpole:
Teaching children about outer space and the night sky they can see are really big concepts. We like how this book reads, talking about what you see, how to interpret it, and how we can up with the know-how we have about space up until this point in time.

Gift Pairing Idea: Make it into a gift set by pairing it with Ravensburger’s 200-Piece Solar System Jigsaw Puzzle, which is also great for children ages 8+.
