Inside the book

A peek between the covers

With my lunar lasso I'll loop Saturn's bright rings, and brand all his moons with the mark of the wind.
I'll spin like a pinwheel through the Milky Way's froth, take a ride on the Great Bear and never fall off.
I'll swim across Jupiter's gigantic gas sea, then thread up his moons on a necklace for me.

Reviews

4.5

4.5

This book borders on the cusp of great, but the one near rhyme (rings and wind?) just blows it for me. The illustrations are a fun mix of different styles between the outer space elements and the kids.
