This book is perfect for kids and teenagers because it unlocks the universe (see what I did there) in an easy and simple way to understand. Though it can take some time to read it and fully understand, I would definitely suggest others to read this book.

Informative and simple, It was an enjoyable read and I've quite frankly learned a lot from it.
