This is such a wonderful book. My autistic child asks so many questions about space. He was so happy to receive this book. He began reading it right away. Yes my book came with the corners smashed in. It’s because there is no padding or anything in the package it came in. So it’s not being protected properly. Nonetheless it does not bother us.
