National Geographic Little Kids First Big Book of Space
"This book is great for curious little ones who like learning new things"
— Erica (5/5)
Great for a wide range of ages!
"I love these Nat Geo books! We have the Space and the Dinosaur ones, and my son absolutely loves them. He’s still a little young to read the whole thing, but even the illustrations alone are enough to get him interested. He loves both dinosaurs and space, and these are great to get him learn the names of the planets and different dinosaurs. It’s definitely something we’ll be keeping for him to read even as he grows older!"
