This book is so inspiring to future astronauts and space-lovers with its amazing imagery, hands-on activities, and unique view into astronauts' lives and training. All kids at one point dream of being an astronaut, and this book is the perfect addition to their personal library to expand their curiosity and imagination even more!" --Dr. Erica Colón, Founder of Nitty Gritty Science, LLC
"The best looking, best written of Dr. Betts' works so far. Why wasn't a book like this on the shelf when I was 7 or 9? Packed with illustrations and activities, with engaging text at just the right level, it would have been a treasured part of my library for years. The fledgling astronaut or space scientist in any home will feel the same." --Mat Kaplan, Host and Producer of Planetary Radio, The Planetary Society
