I remember when my girls were younger. We would all pile on top of the trampoline and look at the night sky. This was a time of family and learning. Now that my girls are older I miss those days. So I decided to share three amazing books about outer space.

This book provides fact after fact for children to tell family and friends, and even has an accompanying webpage with video clips giving a visual insight into the planets, stars, comets, asteroids, black holes and many of the other things that make up the universe.
