Fun and interesting

What a neat story! A wonderful book with great illustrations. Fascinating facts at the end. All you ever wanted to know (and more) about dust. Did you know that if there is more dust it makes for a more colorful sunset? i had no idea...all because of dust. Wow. My kids were intrigued. Fun.

Surprisingly lovely, and informative

I enjoyed this lovely book very much, and think that young children will be astonished to learn about what dust is and where it comes from. Adults too!
