My Thoughts…
This is so much more than a book of pictures. This a world expanding book of our universe. If you feel small on the daily, like I do when I consider the vastness of space, this picture book will shrink you even more.
It’s hard to put into words how beautiful these pictures are. This is the perfect book to keep in a living area for guests. Would also be amazing in a classroom, possibly inspiring some future astronauts or engineers.
If you’re looking for an amazing book to share with friends or budding space explorers like my son, you can’t do better than this new book by National Geographic.
