Catching the sun, catching some air

(Portuguese edition)

This book is a tribute to our place in space, to the Sun, to the atmosphere, to planet Earth.

It contains information, activities, pages to breathe in deep with, pages to have fun with. On some pages, we respond to questions that science has already found answers for (What is the wind? How big is the sun?); on others we tell stories involving bees, trees or flying seeds; on others, still, we talk about people, of course. The sun that comes in through the window, the air that goes into our lungs. The hats that fly away with the wind. The people who are the lights of our lives.

Are you coming?
The sun’s out, waiting for us.
We really could use some fresh air, let’s go!
