Perfect for intermediate science lessons and a useful update for existing library collections; the large format images make it especially appealing.""--School Library Journal -- (11/21/2023 12:00:00 AM) ""[I]mpressively clear and efficient--the level of detail will satisfy advanced readers, while the digestible format will be welcoming to reluctant or hard-to-please readers. The author's enthusiasm shines through clearly and is contagious. Sure to excite a new generation of stargazers and scientists.""--Kirkus Reviews -- (10/2/2023 12:00:00 AM)"
