DESCRIPTION:
Informative and well illustrated prek mom I bought this for my preschool student. He loved it. The illustrations were great and the information was simply stated. The text was presented in a visually appealing manner with additional text boxes for additional information. We read it often.. "Travel to the Moon" according to A Customer. What child does not want to be an astronaut when they grow up? Traveling in space, walking on the moon: How amazing! This book allows children to explore their curiosity and excitement about the moon. It is well illustrated and the narration is interesting and keeps their attention. They are learning, yet it is fun. It is unique because the story is supplemented with short teaching times referring the child to the pictures on the page. (Even I learned a few things about the moon.) My son. Lynn Westwood said Fun Book. I got this for my grandson and we enjoyed reading it together! He is six and it is easy for him to read.
