Astronaut Handbook by Meghan Mccarthy
3.0
This is a nice overview for children of what it takes to become an astronaut. There isn't a lot of text on most of the pages, but still quite a lot of information is conveyed.
My favorite parts were the pages towards the end that gave some very interesting bits of information - such as a labeled diagram of a space toilet and a space suit. The fascinating facts page at the end really was fascinating.
I had a hard time reading the information on the bibliography page because of the black text on the purple background. Even just a little lighter background would have made a huge difference - or a different font color.
As always, I loved Meghan McCarthy's illustrations. Something about her giant-eyed people just really appeal to me.
