(3) K-3 Our Solar System series. The brevity and image-heavy format of these series books don't reflect their sophisticated content: each book provides information on its subject's discovery, key characteristics, composition, and exploration. Vivid captioned color images, occasionally spanning two pages, reinforce the texts' observations. Interesting facts, such as the length of a day on the featured planet in terms of Earth hours, are scattered throughout. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Our Solar System titles: Jupiter and Mercury.]
