The planets / by Gail Gibbons.
From the burning surface of Venus to the freezing darkness of Neptune, Gail Gibbons takes children on a tour of our solar system-which are very different from each other in size, shape, orbit, and even weather. The bodies in our solar system are named, described, and illustrated in clear, well-labeled spreads that give a strong sense of shape and scale to our skies. Each entry is full of intriguing details about their composition, behavior, and moons. The book also describes the sun and each planet of the solar system and introduces concepts such as a day, a year, orbit, and rotation.
