Summary "This book tells young readers everything they want to know about life in space. With a focus on international collaboration, it details how men and women in space celebrate the holidays, watch the latest movies, go to sleep, call home, eat and drink, use the toilet and so much more. Featured astronauts include Canadians Chris Hadfield and Julie Payette -- the only Canadian woman to visit the ISS. Each page of this book is heavily illustrated with photos showing the space station and the astronauts in action. Short texts and cutlines engage readers and make this book fun to browse. Author John Read has extensive experience as a space educator and as a bestselling author of books for young people on astronomy. In this book he provides an up-to-date account of the most exciting ongoing example of space exploration today"-- Provided by publisher.
