LoveReading4Kids Says

Following the success of Atoms, this is another perfectly pitched, scientific explanation for very young readers employing the same highly attractive, boldly coloured images and beautifully designed layout from this highly talented author/illustrator.

The text strikes just the right tone to engage the reader and keep them involved, inviting them to think about their own planet and how amazing it is that we don’t fall off when it is constantly spinning, and then to take a look at the other planets to see if they would be a better place to live. So, blasting off in our rocket with a quick explanation of gravity, the tour begins, and the reader learns just how inhospitable the other planets are and discovers fun facts about each one.

Cleverly relating these facts to experiences that children will be familiar with, like the fact that you would only get a birthday every 164.8 years on Uranus or that zero gravity on Mars would make eating spaghetti very messy indeed, ensures understanding. A book that will definitely be read for pleasure as well as providing a brilliant learning opportunity.
