Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. We enjoyed this one. There were beautiful pictures and we loved the extra interesting space facts on each page.

This illustrated book was fascinating, poetic and very informative. The data and explanations were phrased in a straightforward way, making it palatable to a young audience (8 to 10 yrs). A very pleasant and dreamy reading experience to have a head full of stars!

I thought that this book was fantastic!

The book had some lovely wording to tell the story and the facts added to the different pages were great. I loved that you get to learn as you read more of the book and as the story progresses to.

The illustrations are great and help bring the book to life. I liked the addition to the pages which shows where you would be in the atmosphere too. All great and subtle ways of learning too.

My daughter has recently visited the National Space Centre in Leicester with her school class so it links in nicely with the curriculum too - a fun and informative way to learn.

It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!

Books about space are a huge hit in our home and "Up, Up High" will make a great addition to our home library. The simple, but lyrical text, describes what it would be like to travel through our atmosphere. My six year old and I both learned about several new space phenomenon and found the new information to be written in a way that was interesting and easy to understand. I highly recommend to all young space lovers!
