Recensioner i media

The Mars rover Curiosity narrates her own story in Motum’s handsome and engaging children’s book debut...The book’s large trim size and expansive scenes work in tandem to evoke the vastness of star-filled skies and reddish Martian landscapes. Originally published in the U.K., this accessible look at interplanetary exploration will appeal to a broad range of young space enthusiasts.
