Review by Horn Book Review

Minimal text via large typeface presents some basic information about space-related topics. The prose and color illustrations are pedestrian; the picture captions are frustrating because they often contain interesting tidbits that are left unexplained. Each volume in this series includes an activity, although using a wheeled swivel chair to emulate space walking seems like a stretch. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Explore Space! titles: [cf2]Satellites, Space Walks, Exploring Mars[cf1], and [cf2]Space Missions[cf1].] (c) Copyright 2010.
