Ripley's Believe It or Not

by Ripley Entertainment Inc.

A uniquely fun Ripley’s Believe It or Not! way of looking at traditional subject matter with a Ripley's twist!

Space is fascinating, and huge, and complicated. It's full of thing you can see, like stars, and satellites, and the Sun. It's even more full of things you can't see, like black holes, and wormholes, and dark energy. Scientists have spent lifetimes trying to make sense of what's out there. How big is the Universe? How did it all begin? Where will it all end? This book shows you some of space's best bits: shuttles and space stations, planets and probes, meteorites and moons, asteroids and astronauts. Every page is packed with out-of-this world info, with special Ripley's fascinating facts and amazing "Believe It or Not!" stories. Are you ready to read on? 5-4-3-2-1... Ripley Twists is a new high impact series which offers an enticing alternative to run-of-the mill junior reference books.

[Kenny]

I think it had alot of information about space i liked that but i didn't like how short it was. one interesting fact a speck of the sun as big as the tip of a needle could kill you from 100 miles away the author could improve on explaining things better

I really liked it.

Compacto, divertido y con mucha información interesante. Me molestaba cada vez que tenía que girar el libro para leerlo, pero bueno, es un libro para niños, lo dejaré pasar.
