Product Description
Captain Invincible and his intrepid space-dog, Comet, are on a perilous journey back to Earth!

But will their knowledge of three-dimensional shapes, including cubes, cones, and pyramids, help our heroes navigate past these obstacles -- and make it safely home?

 Contrived introduction of shapes in an unentertaining story. June 3, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
3-dimensional shapes are named and described in a story about a boy and his dog pretending to be on a space adventure but their use in the story is very contrived. Example: when they go thru a meteor shower, they use the cube since "The radar beams from our directional cube will help us find a path to safety. Good thing the 6 square faces of the cube are working properly." About all you can expect from this book is a picture of 6 3-D objects and their names - not related in any way to where they really occur in the real world. I think my 5 year old, who likes space stuff was about as bored as I was.
 Super book! October 2, 2003

Set in a comic book format, this book has been a favorite of my 4 year old son since we bought it. A very simple book, and very appropriate for preschoolers. The writing is a little lame at one point, but my son doesn't care and thoroughly enjoys this book ( and he's learned some simple math concepts without realizing he's been taught).
