Aimed a step above picture-book level, this 160-page hardcover covers space for readers of about seven and upward, with longer explanations than a first encyclopedia would carry. The subject is treated systematically.
Sections move outward from Earth and the Moon to the planets, the Sun, stars and the wider universe, with attention also given to telescopes, rockets and the people who have travelled beyond the atmosphere. Terminology such as orbit, gravity and light year is introduced and explained where it appears. Because entries are organised by topic, the book supports school projects as readily as free reading.
Worth noting:
• 160 pages arranged by astronomical topic
• Terms explained at the point they are introduced
• Coverage of both the universe and human space travel
• Useful for homework as well as for browsing
Well suited to primary readers aged seven and above and to school libraries, published by Shree Book Centre and available at Boipoka.
