“Genre: Poetry
Grade Level: K-2
I love Forian's poems! They're all so fun and I love how he changes the formatting to match what the poems about. For the galaxy poem, it was written in a spiral, and for Neptune, it included blue text. I think this adds a lot of character to the poems. I also love the little cut outs in the illustrations. It's fun to guess what is going to be on the next page. These poems had great vocabulary and I love how he included a glossary. This collection of poems will be great to have in a classroom and use for vocab lessons.”

“I have always been interested in astronomy since I was a child. This book was a quick read, very cute. I read the ebook, the illustrations were unique . I bet I would of enjoyed them more if I had read the print version. I kind of felt like I was reading a children’s book. Some of the poems resonated with me. I learned a lot from the glossary portion of the book.”
