Yep, exactly what it sounds like - a cat in an astronaut suit explains rockets. It explains things clearly and concisely in an engaging and age-appropriate way.

Less complicated than some of the other Astro Cat books, this volume covers how rockets reach space, the Apollo 11 mission, and the space shuttles. With only a few sentences per page, there is less detail, but the three year old was engrossed. The blocky pictures do not appeal to me as much, but the kids love them. ( )
