Obsessed with gross body secrets

Bought this for my 9-year-old son who usually hates reading. He is obsessed with the 'gross body secrets' section. He spent all of dinner telling us how astronauts go to the bathroom in space. Docking one star because the cover got slightly bent in the mail, but the content is great.

Got him off his iPad

Got this for my grandson's 10th birthday to get him off his iPad. Honestly, I ended up reading half of it before wrapping it. The part about world records—like someone balancing a running chainsaw on their chin—is crazy. (Glad it has a 'do not try this at home' warning!). Highly recommend.

Most fought-over book in class

I teach 4th grade and put this in our classroom library. It is the most fought-over book right now! I use some of the space facts as warm-ups for our science block. Jack Potts put together a fantastic resource that actually keeps kids engaged.

A really chunky book!

A really chunky book! Bought it for my niece. She's 8 and loves animals. Some of the words are a little big for her, but we read it together before bed. The snake facts really creeped me out, but she loved them lol. Good purchase.
