This book is full of awesome experiments that will get students interested in space and rockets (and if they are already interested, feed that interest)!
An incredibly informative and interesting book on rocket science. How does a toilet flush in space? What is gravity? What is the distance from earth to the sun?
Including fun projects to learn more throughout this was a fun interactive book.
I Can Be a Rocket Scientist was a phenomenal book for kids really into space or those just getting started. It was written in a format that was fun to read and kept the reader engaged. It bounced back and forth between knowledge, experiment, fun and learning. It was a MUST HAVE for our classroom and any child who loves space!
This title is full of facts and experiments that kids can do at home to learn more about the work of rocket scientists and the universe in which we live. For example, I learned why rocket ships are shaped as they are and how this helps with take off. I could then have launched a small "rocket" from home. Another entry has to do with what one might weigh on different planets. A few other subject headings include Landing on a Comet, Astronaut Training and Space Toilets.
This is a good book for encouraging experimentation and curiosity for future scientists. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.
