Real-life scientist Nate Ball and four kid "Investigators" hop into a spacecraft and visit major objects in the solar system in this installment of the Magic School Bus read-alike series. Alongside cartoon illustrations, their speech-bubble dialogue accompanies superficial text about the system's formation, gravity, planets, asteroids, and more. Pages from child Braden's journal reinforce vocabulary concepts throughout. A relevant experiment is appended. Glos.
