Wow in the World Series
Written by Mindy Thomas and Guy Raz, Illustrated by Mike Centeno
WOW, what a fun book! In fact, it is so fun you don’t even know you are learning. Whether you are a space cadet or a browser, readers will enjoy the illustrations and reading the treasure trove of facts about space. It is broken down into seven parts. I learned something interesting in each one, such as:
- the planet Jupiter has a shrinking pimple (red spot)
- since 2018 a launched red Tesla has been orbiting the Sun
- the International Space Station is the size of a football field.
This is a graphic style nonfiction book that I will circulate often in any library.
