Negative Positive
Title: Accurate, Poetic, and Engaging for Kids
Review: I bought this book on the strength of the previous reviews and I'm pleased to report that they didn't lead me astray.The scientific information on cosmology is accurate, the level of detail is just right for elementary schoolers, the graphics are vivid and engaging, and the narrative speaks in an effective personal voice. One could even say that the book has a spiritual dimension of a secular sort (as previous reviews attest, this isn't a book for reductionistic materialists).Most importantly, my daughter really loves this book, as evidenced by her unusually focused attentiveness to the text and her vivid recollection of the graphics. In short, this book was written specifically to engage and teach kids, and it works.Highly recommended to any parent wishing to introduce their child to the basics of cosmology.
