Customer Review: Needs an update
This is a bit out of date. Perhaps children won't mind. Pluto is no longer a planet. Plans for humans to go to Mars have been scrapped. The Very Large Telescope in Chile was completed years ago. Etc.
It says there is no proof that UFO's exist when clearly objects that haven't been identified do exist, there's just no proof they are space aliens.
But, nevertheless probably a fun book for kids who like science.
Customer Review: Snazzy Resource
The kids realy like the animations and presentations of this book. While it is definately not boring, the planets themselves get only one page each of factual info in super small text. The solar system overview chapter was great for group reading and was primarily what I used from the book, including a photo of a meteorite in comparison to the size of children. Translation: great as a fun addition to learning but not to replace hard fact texts and in-depth lesson plans.
