About the book
Alma, Leo and Noa live at a Moon base near the lunar South Pole with four hard-working robots and one very good hider: Comet, Leo's stuffed dog. In this book, most puzzles are a job on the base. Guide Alma through a maze to the bottom of Shackleton Crater. Write the arrow program that gets Beep the robot to the airlock before his battery runs out. Decode the flashlight message Alma sends to Earth. Find out which marble drop makes the biggest crater.
There are 60 activities in full color, from easy to tricky, with answers for every one at the back and step-by-step explanations for the logic and balance puzzles. All a child needs is a pencil, crayons and a ruler. It pairs with the chapter book Moon Kids: An Artemis Adventure, but there is no need to read the story first: only one quiz asks about it.
