Title: Cute, but then SCARY!
Review: I got this book for my 3 year old son thinking the illustrations looked cute and we were looking for "outer space" books. I read it to him one night and he didn't have much of a reaction one way or another. The next night I asked if he wanted to read it again and he grabbed it from me, threw it and said it was too scary because of the astronaut. So I looked back in the book and got to the page where "Papa's gonna get you an astronaut" and while on all the other pages the aliens look little and adorable, on this page they are HUGE and holding a TERRIFIED, STRUGGLING human astronaut (not a "toy" astronaut as one of the reviews say, he's definitely alive). I didn't notice it the first time around, but that page is really scary and disturbing, especially to a little kid who is sensitive to the emotions on other people's faces. I would definitely take a look at it at the library before you buy...just that one page is enough to ruin it!
Is the review positive or negative?
