Content
Distant galaxies, exploding stars and black holes – the universe harbours many secrets. In this book, early readers can go on a journey of discovery through space and acquire exciting knowledge by themselves: what are planets made of? How does a rocket start? Once they’ve read everything, they can put the missing parts of the international space station ISS in the correct spots on the sticker page.
About the Series
Short, simple texts make independent reading child’s play. A variety of reading puzzles at the end of each chapter, a big reading quiz at the end, a cut-out reading bingo and a sticker page make for a unique blend of reading comprehension, factual knowledge and playing fun.
The Author
Carola von Kessel worked as an editor for children’s and horse books before starting to write her own stories. She currently writes freelance for various publishers. She lives on a former farm on the Lower Rhine with her husband, her daughter and a number of horses.
The Illustrator
Gerhard Schröder, born in Strade in April 1963, knew early on that he wanted to do "something with drawing". The urge to design, draw and shape led him to dedicate himself professionally to illustration after graduating as a communication designer in 2001. What he particularly loves about his work is that he can put himself in the shoes of the various characters when drawing, just like an actor. Today he lives with his wife and two children, whom he likes to make smile with his illustrations. And even though he would sometimes like to be a lighthouse keeper, he has turned his favorite pastime into a profession.
