Such a wonderful book about space with sweet looking, but weird aliens, many adventures and colourful illustrations. My 4 year old girl who is a fan of space and I really enjoyed it. There are also some additional pages to engage the kids at the end of the book, such as questions, colouring pages and interesting info. Can’t wait to read other books in the series.

★★★★★ - Literary Titan educational review - 14 January 2024
Pippin’s Space Adventure by Julia Seaborn is a delightful tale that whisks young readers on an imaginative journey through the cosmos. The story follows the curious Pippin, a poodle with a passion for stargazing, and his friend Blossom the Possum. Each night, Pippin dreams of traversing the universe, leading to a dream sequence where he finds himself aboard a spaceship, accompanied by Jelly, a friendly monster.
Seaborn’s narrative is both captivating and educational, striking a balance between whimsy and learning. The adventure is filled with close encounters, like skillfully navigating through asteroid fields, which keeps the pace lively and engaging. This book’s charm is further enhanced by its vibrant illustrations that vividly bring the story to life, reminiscent of watching a cartoon. A unique aspect of this book is its educational content. Lessons about space, including the solar system, planets, and shooting stars, are seemingly woven into the narrative.
The book concludes with a thoughtful addition – a section aimed at testing the readers’ comprehension. This, along with a bonus coloring page, invites young readers to interact with the story beyond just reading.
Julia Seaborn’s Pippin’s Space Adventure is a charming, imaginative, and informative read that will captivate and educate young minds.

Pippin and the monsters he meets are so cute, the character design is perfect! I also really appreciated the information about the solar system at the end, it created space to dig into curiosity that kids will have after reading about Pippin's space adventure. There are also some reading comprehension questions at the end that are just right for the age range of readers to lean how to think about what they're reading.

LiteraryCryptid - 5 stars - Goodreads
An adorable space adventure featuring Pippin the Poodle.
Pippin is looking at the stars and wondering what is up there in space when he falls asleep, awakening to find he is now floating among the stars. Meeting new friends and solving some action packed problems Pippin goes on a solar adventure to discover what that bright light in the sky really is.
The pictures in this book are absolutely adorable! They are fun and playful, and the accompanying fun questions at the end of the story turn them into wonderful engagement opportunities. Additionally the collection of space facts at the end build upon the curiosity of Pippin, and the information presented through the story.
A perfect story to get any young reader interested in space and the solar system.

Well, to be precise, This book has a good story line of space adventure but the better part is illustration. It is a USP, bright, clear and childish too. Whole story has information about solar system, space as well, but without academic burden. It is a wisely written book.
