Out of This World: Poems and Facts About Space

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Stacey Schuett. Poems (of varying quality) about space travel, astronauts, bodies in the solar system, and the universe combine scientific terminology and wonderment. Each is juxtaposed, some in creative graphic formats, on cartoonlike illustrations of the featured object. Black border margins contain more detailed facts and background information about such topics as weightlessness, the history of flight, and planetary surface conditions.
