<b>Snakes in Space</b> was very engaging! I loved the bright vibrant colors combined with the stark contrasts used between the words and the images on the pages to give great visuals that kids will love. The verbiage used to convey the story was easy to understand and had some repetitive qualities that kids can remember too! The storyline was fun and explained a great overview of going into space and coming back on a spaceship. Plus, <i>Kathryn Dennis</i> (who is the author and illustrator) did a great job using the illustrations to convey movement and engagement with the kids through different design elements. This is her newest book in the series, and I LOVE it and cannot wait to read more books from her. Truly one of the best children’s books I have read in a while.

Do you remember the Film 'Armageddon'

'The Day After Tomorrow'?

Or even '2012'?

This is more of the same, this time with Gerard Butler taking the lead in a not-so-distant future of 2022 after a network of satellites is sent up into space in 2019 (I must have missed that - I'm reviewing in 2020) to control the weather.

Of course, things then start t go wrong with said satellites (mainly due to sabotage), leading ex-chief engineer Jake Lawson to be recruited by his politician brother (who had previously fired him) to go back up into space to see if he can put things right, in a race against time.

So, Gerard Butler vs The Weather. It's no contest.

(it's also almost completely a cheesy B movie, which can be unintentionally funny if you let it!)

Life is a solid and enjoyable sci-fi flick. It's certainly not going to be a classic that will be remembered in years to come but it's definitely entertaining. The visuals are strong - both for the look of space and the realisation of Calvin the alien.
