13 Planets: The Latest View of the Solar System (National Geographic
Kids)
First, Pluto left. Then it
came back, along with Ceres and Eris...and now Haumea and MakeMake, too! The
recent actions of the International Astronomical Union have put every solar
system book out of date. In response, National Geographic joins forces with
David Aguilar of the Harvard Smithsonian Astronomical Observatory to revise our
2008 book—and to update young readers on the high-interest topic of space.
Using simple text and spectacular photorealistic computer art by the author,
this book profiles all 13 planets in their newly created categories—plus the sun,
the Oort Cloud, comets, and other worlds being discovered. Back-of-the-book
activities offer hands-on fun for budding astronomers.
Space Encyclopedia: A Tour of Our Solar System and Beyond (National
Geographic Kids)
Presenting the latest
exciting findings on space exploration and research and cutting-edge,
spectacular views of the universe that technology is bringing back to Earth,
all in one ultimate reference book. Authored by David A. Aguilar of the
Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, the National Geographic Space Encyclopedia is ideal for the family
bookshelf, providing both accessible information for school reports and
compelling reading on the mysteries beyond our world.
The Magic School Bus Lost In The Solar System
The fieldtrip to the
planetarium is foiled when the museum turns out to be closed, but Ms. Frizzle
saves the day. The Magic School Bus turns into a spaceship and takes the class
on a trip zooming through the atmosphere, to the Moon, and beyond! With
up-to-date facts about the solar system, revised for this edition.
Our Solar System
Born almost 5 billion years ago at the edge of the Milky Way
galaxy, our Solar System is a place filled with mystery and wonder. In the last
fifty years, we have learned more than ever about the farthest reaches of our
world. With dramatic full-color photographs and spacecraft images, Our Solar System takes young readers on a fascinating
tour of the sun, the eight planets, and their moons, plus asteroids, comets,
and meteoroids. Award-winning science writer Seymour Simon has teamed up with
the Smithsonian Institution on this new, updated edition of his much admired
book about the vast and mystifying part of the universe that we live in.

Crystal,
ReplyDeleteYour text set looks awesome! Our students love to learn about the solar system and looks like you have included a lot of very useful materials to aid in teaching and learning. My students loved the Space Encyclopedia last year! They kept going back to that book even after the unit was over.
Great text set Crystal. These are great materials for students to learn about the solar system. I really like the Kids Astronomy website because it is interactive from the planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and meteorites. I love Magic School bus books because the students feel like they are in the book learning about the skill being taught such as the solar system.
