Public libraries and media centers should acquire multiple copies, if possible, to meet certain demand." --"VOYA ""Children will have fun browsing the spacious pages and sharing what they read with adults, who can join in the explanations about complex stuff, including time travel and Einstein's theory of relativity." --"Booklist"
