This was an amazing science book that I enjoyed just as much my son did. The author did a great job putting the size of the things in the universe and beyond in perspective, and the illustrations to accompany each analogy were humorous and memorable. I highly recommend this book!

I'll read almost anything with a whale on it regardless of the target audience. This was a nice science book that demonstrated the concept of size and space. By comparing big things to other big things and then even bigger things,the author makes the concept of galaxies and the universe much easier to grasp at an elementary level.
