Review:
This fun book is aimed at elementary kids, and I would put it for lower elementary. Older kids may find a tidbit or two, that they did not know, but most of it would be review for them. If you were using it for a vacation bible school, that has a space theme, it would be good to come up with different facts and figures, that you may have forgotten, that kids may not know. Its illustration are colorful and catch kids' eyes, and this is a book that they'll go back to you again and again. It would be great or Summer learning as well.
