Space Matters, written by Jacque Lynn, reviewed by Judy Hauser

Summary: This is the story of spaces between things in this huge, diverse world. The text, by Jacque Lynn, and illustrations, by Lydia Nichols, show that words are spaced apart in sentences and buildings are spaced apart in cities. And the consequences if these things are not spaced apart. The author also looks at big spaces such as the sky and seas and how they can fill up with snow and blue water. This look at spaces in the world is interesting and illustrated with great examples that young children will understand. It should evoke some fun discussion about spaces and have the wheels turning in young minds. 

Straight Talk for Librarians: A great way to talk about something that would not occur to young children. It is a great conversation topic with endless possibilities.
