Books I’ve Read 2017 #9 – What’s it Like in Space?

Standard

By Ariel Waldman.

This is a fun, short book with illustrations and one-page anecdotes of the things that happen, things that you can do, things that you can’t do, and what things are wonderful or horrible about being in space.

I really enjoyed it – I’ll never get to space (as much as I’d like to), so learning about what I’m missing is fun and educational. Definitely safe for kids – yes, there is talk of “elimination” but what kid doesn’t already want to know the answers to those questions? Or people like me who might physically be a woman in her mid-forties but has the scatalogical humour of a 9-year-old-boy?


And that is me finally done for January. We won’t count the 3 national geographic magazines or four gardening magazines, right? Can’t review them. Or can I?

  1. Cool book. Must find it! We live so close to mission control and always look for the space station over head. Sigh. I keep saying I’m going to have a taco/hot dog stand by the commercial space ports when they start up so I can hear all the stories
