Customer Reviews

Learning can be Fun

I gave this to my cousin's son. He loved it. For a boy who doesn't enjoy school he was having a lot of fun reading this book.

Wonderful Book

This is a book for all ages. Small children of all ages will love the pictures and parents can enjoy it as well. My mother who is 81 loves this this book. Finally, there is a book that explains our universe in a fun way for all of us to enjoy. I think everyone on our beautiful planet should read this book!

A Note from the Author

I am the author of this book, and I just wanted to point out that the age level is not quite correct in the listing. We designed the book for kids who can already read pretty well. So the age range should be 10 to 14, not 4-8. (I think maybe the person entering the information meant grades 4-8.) In any case, as the author, I invite you to take a look at the beautiful color images and fun quips from Disney and Pixar characters throughout the book.
