(3) K-3 Illustrated by Brad Woodard. Astro, an asteroid with attitude, enjoys his quiet life and plentiful "personal outer space" until a satellite bumps into him ("GOOD GRAVITY!") and sends him "hurtl[ing] through space" at "unstoppable speeds." The stimulating vocabulary (e.g., rambunctious, celestial, distraught) and retro-feeling digital art invigorate this combination adventure tale and asteroid primer. The appended "Selection of Space Facts" is equally lively.
