The
Playful Planets
Did
you know that the planets are the original
superheroes of myth and legend?
In this
unique children's book series, the planets
personalities reflect their roles in myth and
legend. The beautiful and original artwork brings
them to life in true superhero style.
Mr Bully is MARS, the God of War;
Veronica VENUS the Goddess of Love and Beauty;
Jovial Jove is JUPITER, the God of Justice; Mickey
MERCURY the Winged Messenger; Uri URANUS the
Magician; Neville NEPTUNE the God of the Deep; and
SATURN is Old Father Time (Kronos). Marvin the
miserable man in the MOON lives next to our
beautiful blue-green planet, Maggie Mother EARTH.
In many older languages, especially
those of Latin origin, the days of the week are
named after the planets. In Spanish, for example,
Monday is El Lunes (from Lunar, the Moon), Tuesday
is Martes (Mars), Wednesday is Miércoles
(Mercury), Thursday is Jueves (Jupiter), and
Friday is Viernes (Venus). In English, Saturday is
short for Saturn day, and Sunday is the day of the
Sun. The month of March is also named after the
planet Mars.
