Space for Smart Kids: Volume 1

Discover the mysteries of science with Future Geniuses! Come along with Valentina, the astronaut, on this incredible journey to Mars and become a space genius! Up past the exosphere, thermosphere, and mesosphere, we will find outer space and learn the answers to some big questions. What is the ozone layer? What is gravity? What type of objects are sent into space? Which countries have successfully traveled into space before us? What are the parts of rockets called, and what does each part do? And, most importantly, how do we communicate with Earth while we're up there? And how do we get home when we're done? Future Geniuses is a collection that will help families spend a lot of time reading and learning together. Through simple text and fun illustrations, author and scientist Carlos Pazos makes the subjects of space and spaze travel approachable and easy to understand for even the smallest scientists.
