SUZIE SAVES THE UNIVERSE is a blast of a book (pun fully intended), following Suzie Wen as she finds herself aboard a spaceship in pursuit of missing moons. Along the way, she meets all sorts of aliens and finds a way to fit in with a crew who aren't all pleased to see her.
This book is full of weird, wacky, and wonderful planets - there's one made of cheese! I won't spoil the others, but they were so inventive and so much fun to encounter. It meant this book has a mix of "anything-goes" sci-fi alongside the very accurate facts, all with a focus on invention, imagination, and helping others.
I did not expect this book to have as many illustrations as it did! That might be one of the differences in presentation between upper and lower MG - just how visual the book is. There are large spreads or smaller images on almost every page, with the text bending and wiggling around them.
Not only do the illustrations help bring the scenes to life, but there are extracts from Suzie's notebook and little science factoids in hexagons scattered about the book. It really makes for a feast for the eyes while you read.
