Great intro to the cosmos. Adults will enjoy this just as much as the kids.

perfect combo LeVar Burton and Neil DeGrasse Tyson

excellent narration and excellent writing

my adolescent daughters and myself listened to this book together. it took a few chapters for my youngest to get into the book but neither daughter has a love of astronomy. by the middle of the book both girls had gained an interest in astronomy and were wanting to learn more. by the end if the book all three of us had learned more about astronomy than we knew before and were sorry the book had come to an end. expert narration by the master himself. and excellent writing by well respected experts. this is a great read and listen for any age.

great book

The reader did an excellent job. keeping you interesting without being felt younger being talked down too. I recommend this for kids and adults!

enjoyable

I chose to listen to this book because I had listened to astrophysics for people in a hurry by Mr Tyson. very similar material if not the exact same material covered in that book. but as expected by the title presented in a much more kid-friendly format. most notably it is read by LeVar Burton who my generation remembers as the host of reading rainbow. And it'll walk down memory lane to hear his voice reading to me.
