Made for me straight from the start
I am Azrin, a girl who likes Astronomy, stars, the moon, and outer space. The book is very interesting yet a bit boring, though I still love it! I haven't finished reading yet but the book is either way very amazing. It has all of my interests and is very entertaining. I'm only 9 but can still read non-picture books. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes stars, space, and frightening adventure.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
