My Very Important Lift-the-Flap Book: Space

Lift the flaps to learn about the incredible world beyond our atmosphere.

Discover what it takes to become an astronaut, then join the team at mission control as a spacecraft blasts off into space! Dock at the International Space Station and discover how astronauts drink their morning coffee, eat meals, and go to the toilet more than 300km above the Earth. Next, it’s time to suit up and go for a spacewalk. Discover what it’s like to float in space and see how astronauts survive in a place without air. See the amazing solar system and learn about the planets around us, before finding out how humans explored Mars and the Moon. Finally, it’s time to return to Earth. Prepare for splash down!


From the different jobs in mission control, to the astronaut training pool, the International Space Station, and the mountains on the Moon, lift over 80 flaps to discover the mysteries of space. Explore beautifully illustrated views of Earth and out-of-this-world photography of the planets around it. Fun and educational text gives children all the important facts, whilst age appropriate questions invite young space explorers to recall information and explore each scene for clues.


Perfect for budding young astronauts... it’s time to lift off and soar in space!
