Description
Blast off with rocket science!
3-2-1! Blast off!
Rockets shoot through the air and deep into space.
This engaging board book breaks down one of the most complex scientific areas—rocket science—into simple, accessible language for readers of all ages. Learn about different parts of a rocket, how they work, and what they do for us today. Think about all the ways they'll shape our future. Accompanied by adorably illustrated baby scientists, your little readers will embark on an out-of-this-world journey, welcoming readers into how science inspires our dreams for the future.
Explore how rockets may travel faster than the speed of sound. Ponder about flying across the world in an hour. Think about what it would be like to orbit the Earth! This charming board book will motivate toddlers to move out of their comfort zones, maybe even travelling to Mars!
From Starry Forest Books, Baby's Big World introduces babies to big concepts—everything from rocket science to music—for the very first time.
