Planets for kids
The ideal way to teach children about the planets, and the myths and legends associated with them. There are numerous space books for kids out there, but this is the only children's astronomy book that personifies the planets according to their roles in myth and legend — as the original planet superheroes. Who is your favourite superhero planet? Mars the God of War, Venus the Goddess of Love, or one of the other planets in our solar system?
Reading is a discount ticket to anywhere and everywhere ... including space. Great learning fun for kids.
