EXPLORER'S JOURNAL
Professor Astro Cat's Prompted Guide to Discovering Science and the Stars from Your Backyard
This is the companion journal to the bestselling Professor Astro Cat series, published by Flying Eye Books.
EXPLORER'S JOURNAL is a guided space exploration journal appropriate for ages 7 to 11 featuring delightful midcentury art from the book and writing prompts that allow kids to think critically, be curious, and dream big.
Children can discover the solar system and outer space from their backyard or bedroom with this guided journal based on Ben Newman's art from the children's nonfiction book Professor Astro Cat's Frontiers of Space. Entertaining illustrations, interesting prompts about planets, bodies in space, and stargazing, and a section with important science terms and vocabulary in the back make this a fun way for children to learn more about science and space. This colorfully illustrated journal is not only an effective learning tool but also a fun way to teach kids important skills such as self-reflection, critical thinking, problem solving, and creativity. The prompts encourage children to reflect on earth, space, and science and will appeal to parents looking for gifts themed around STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math).
Dr. Dominic Walliman is a scientist who works on quantum computers. He studied quantum device physics at Birmingham University where he also taught Physics. He is the co-author of the Professor Astro Cat books, which are published by Flying Eye Books and have been translated into 18 languages.
Ben Newman has developed a distinct aesthetic over the years; a contemporary fusion of bold shapes, bright colours and playful characters which has been described as "bauhaus fuzzy felt." He has produced work for a large range of clients, including the Tate Modern, New York Times, BBC Radio 4, Google and The New Yorker. His practice extends from commercial work to worldwide exhibitions, paintings and three dimensional collaborations. He spends the majority of his time collaborating on the Professor Astro Cat children's books with his longtime friend, Dr. Dominic Walliman.
