In chapter 1, the planet's most distinguishing feature is introduced, it is placed in a solar system lineup, and its size is compared to Earth or the Sun. Chapter 2 covers the planet's moon(s) or name origin in the case of moon-less Mercury and Venus. Chapter 3 reports on the weather conditions and day and year length, and chapter 4 is about the satellites and rovers that have or will explore each planet. <strong>Full-color photographs that take up at least half of each page and the large font size make this series welcoming to the youngest readers</strong>. A QR code in each book links to a 3-D image of the planet. Planet facts, glossary, 'learn more' section, and an index are included. VERDICT <strong>Recommended for collections in need of refreshing.</strong>--<em>School Library Journal</em></p>-- "Journal" (4/1/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br>
