Black holes are a constant source of fascination to many due to their mysterious nature. This Very Short Introduction, addresses a variety of questions, including what a black hole actually is, how they are characterized and discovered, and what would happen if you came too close to one.

Professor Katherine Blundell looks at the seemingly paradoxical, mysterious, and intriguing phenomena of black holes. Outlining their nature and characteristics, both those resulting from the spectacular collapse of heavy stars, and the giant black holes found at the centres of galaxies, she separates scientific fact from science fiction, and demonstrates the important role they play in the cosmos.

Best Toddler Sneakers
Started using them when my toddler was 1.5 years old (she wore the size 18-24). Since Robeez doesn’t have bigger sizes of this shoe in their website and they also don’t deliver to my country, I looked in Amazon and to my surprise I found them. So I now have the next size. My toddler loves them, they’re comfortable, easy to put on/take off and beautiful. I highly recommend all Robeez shoes (if they deliver to your country!)

Double check sizing
Too big for my toddler, recommend sizing down. Quality is good if the fit is good.
