Magnificent

I think it was funny that even Rocket and her big brother looked down and the Rocket looked up. And I think it was funny even that they are brother and sister.

Brilliant story about living in the moment and being present with the people you love instead of being glued to devices while life passes you by. Very much recommend this story. The pictures are vibrant as well, great!

Look up! Is a great story with some facts too. Rocket is the main character and Jamal, her big brother, and her get everyone excited about science and space. The pictures are brilliant and lots of friends come.

A fantastic story about the stars

I enjoyed the main character's enthusiasm about space, sharing facts and about meteors and astronauts. Rocket tries in vain to get her brother's attention, eager to share. The illustrations and the layout of text (different sizes, various positions on the page) add to the enjoyment of this book

I like the story

When we read this at school I wanted to share it with Mummy because I knew she would like Rocket a lot, because she is a little girl with a big voice and a big personality. I thought it was so funny when Rocket grabbed the microphone at the supermarket and made the announcement about the meteor shower - I would love to do announcements too!
