BUYING
ADVISORY: PRE-K –
OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE
APPEAL: AVERAGE
Readers learn
about the space, gravity, the planets, and more. The illustrations are mostly
subdued in color, featuring happy babies, and planets with cute little eyes and
smiley faces.
This book has
too much information for a pre-k reader. Feels more kindergarten level or higher
–if it wasn’t in board book format. A skilled pre-K teacher could bring this
book to life, but again, since its in board book format, it would be
challenging to share with a group. Also, kind of not digging that the babies are nerdy and all thus all wear glasses.
