"Blending a fast-paced, first-person narrative with fascinating facts, this fizzes with a young girl’s infectious thirst for learning"
“Difficult isn’t the same as impossible, so I’ve decided to keep learning and this time I’ve decided I’m going to prepare myself for something a bit simpler: MEETING ALIEN LIFE!”
So proclaims sparky Matilda near the opening of Dom Conlon’s Matilda Meets the Universe, a feast of Middle Grade fiction-meets-facts that’s shot-through with an infectious love for learning and thinking big.
Essentially, this invites readers to join Matilda’s indefatigable fact-finding mission to understand everything about the universe. Supported by friends who are “my kind of people”, Matilda’s constant stream of questions sees her get to grips with everything from atoms, the Big Bang, and how the universe expands, to the formation of stars and planets and (this being Matilda!) much, much more.
With on point illustrations by Heidi Cannon, Matilda Meets the Universe looks set to ignite a love of discovery and science in young readers.
So, you want to make contact with aliens? How hard can it be?
