      The Young Reader - June 30, 2004
    Blast Off: A Space Counting Book is a good illustrated number book. Each numeral is accompanied by a simple line of verse and pictures of spaceships and planets. For children whose curiosity is piqued by the illustrations, there is more information available. A brief paragraph explains each picture. Adults or older siblings may have to read the text to very young children.
