First experiences and early learning are lots of fun with Maisy, and this lively, interactive pop-up book makes it easy for the youngest children to understand space and space travel. Maisy watches the sun go down and the moon come up; in the morning she climbs into her rocket and blasts off into space. It takes three days to travel to the moon, readers are told. Next a fun pop-up cleverly demonstrates weightlessness in space. After her adventure Maisy returns to earth, her control module floating down into the sea. Panels down the side of each spread feature details - parachute, monitor, crater, landing module etc – each one named. Another joyful learning experience with this favourite character. ~Andrea Reece
