You and the Universe

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A non-fiction picture book for curious minds ages 4-7, from the inspiring words of the most famous scientist of our times, Professor Stephen Hawking, with his daughter Lucy Hawking and the artwork of Xin Li.

We are all time-travellers, journeying together into the future. Be brave. Be determined. Let's work together to make that future a place we want to visit.

Based on Professor Hawking's 2018 Earth Day address, this inspiring picture book asks children everywhere to look up and wonder at the world around themβ€”just as Professor Hawking did his whole life. Including questions and answers to some big science topics, perfectly explained for young readers by Professor Hawking's daughter, Lucy, and beautifully illustrated by Xin Li, this is the perfect read for curious minds.
