Did you know that the International Space Station is the largest human-made space object? Something that big might seem like it can't move fast—but the ISS cruises through space at about 5 miles (8 km) per second! Spend some time on this massive, speedy space station to learn about how ISS crew members work on incredible science experiments and stop their food from floating away in low gravity. Discover extreme facts about the International Space Station in this fun and kooky book.

      Gr 3-5-An irreverent series that uses humor to engage readers. Each spread has an interesting chapter title, a paragraph of informational text, colorful boxes with facts, photographs, and comic-book style speech bubbles. There are many pictures of children or stereotypical aliens layered over NASA images interacting with or commenting on the subject of the chapter. This comedic device is most effective in the books focused on people and technology (Life in Space, The International Space Station, Space Jobs, and Space Machines), but all the titles present unique and current information in an enjoyable format. VERDICT Fun and browsable, recommended for additional purchase.
