Astronomers and What They Do by Liesbet Slegers
informative
medium-paced
5.0
This was such a beautiful book! And I’m so happy I read it!
I think it is such a beautiful book for young readers ages 5 and up that details what astronomers do for a living.
I really liked the illustration, but also enjoyed the simple way scientific concepts were broken down. Bolding terminology was done effectively, and I liked that comparisons were used to distinguish similar sounding terms, such as astronomers vs astronauts.
My only suggestion is that the text is a little bit small, so I think it would be useful to enlarge the text for younger readers.
Finally, each illustration nicely complimented the text well. The activity at the end of the book would be a fun one for younger readers!
Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
