About This Book
Reach for this book when your child points to a shooting star or asks why some rocks live in the sky while others sit on the ground. It is the perfect tool for a child experiencing their first spark of scientific curiosity, providing a gentle bridge between nighttime wonder and physical reality. By breaking down the specific names for space rocks based on where they are located, the book helps transform a vast, intimidating universe into a series of understandable facts. While the text follows a clear educational structure, it leans heavily on the emotional theme of curiosity and the joy of discovery. It is designed for the early elementary years, focusing on vocabulary building and classification without overwhelming young readers with complex physics. This is a choice for parents who want to foster a love for STEM through a non-intimidating, visually-led format that validates a child's natural urge to ask what and why.
