Mom's Review

Buckle up - you're flying to the moon!

In Explore the Far Side of the Moon, the reader is recruited to participate in a mission to explore - you guessed it - the far side of the moon. Readers learn everything involved in a flight to the moon, from what to pack to how to poo to where to collect ice samples when you get there. Written in direct address with clear, explanatory text, this nonfiction picture book answers the important questions kids have. The illustrations, inset text, and two-page spreads present engaging information and inspire curiosity. You can read it from cover to cover, but if you have certain queries or interests, it doesn't hurt to flip to that page. Want to skip the launch and get straight to the moon? Do it!

Explore the Far Side of the Moon
 is perfect reading for any little one with his heart set on going to the moon.
