School Library Journal - 09/01/2025 Gr 3–7—These vibrant nonfiction companions from "TIME for Kids" deliver fast-paced, engaging science content in a format that's as fun as it is informative. Spectacular Sea Creatures reads like a compact ocean encyclopedia, with each page bursting with color and fascinating facts. Organized alphabetically, the book introduces readers to familiar marine animals and lesser-known species (leaf sheep, anyone?). Each entry includes a full common name, Latin name, and a punchy paragraph of facts, with fun callouts sprinkled throughout. 300 Fantastic Facts!: Space blasts off with a broad look at space exploration before diving into planetary facts, asteroids, and more. A bold, colorful layout and digestible blurbs of information make this an ideal launch point for budding astronomers. Both titles strike a strong balance between educational value and kid appeal, making them excellent additions to elementary and middle school nonfiction collections, especially where high-interest science books are in demand. VERDICT Highly recommended for libraries serving readers who devour fact books or have an interest in animals or outer space.—Jenna LaBollita - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
