Reviews
In the book's optimism, it aims, not just to educate the children about the universe, but also the acceptance of thoughts and feelings within it - something we think adults can learn from too. * It's Nice That *
Explains that although we are all only specks in the universe, there is so much to love about life. * Youth Services Book Review *
Learning at a metalinguistic level will be taking place but more important is the space created for intimacy and interchange. Child of galaxies, written as an address to a child by an adult voice, speaks in the optimistic spirit of Lou Reed's Beginning of a Great Adventure. * Reading Therapy, The Prisma *
