Why did I love this book?
Tim Peake is a bit of a hero of mine. He’s a British astronaut who’s spent time on the International Space Station.
More than that, he’s a great communicator – especially with kids – and his boundless enthusiasm for the adventure of space exploration is infectious.

I learned a lot from this book.
