Independent reading level This book is a great book for early middle grades science classrooms. This book gives us a great amount of knowledge about space. This book is a great book to use when introducing material about space to children. Not only does this book tell us about the planets, but it also gives some scientific vocabulary. Information Summary of book This story began with a little girl in her room looking out into outer space. The little girl discusses each of our planets. Then moves on to stars and other galaxies. The bookends back in the little girl’s room. Personal reaction I enjoy that the story was written for small children to understand. The pictures were great and children will be able to understand the context of the reading without getting bored. Extension Idea Have the student use the book and other tools for them to draw and paint our on solar system. Students can also write a description of each planet. Have students present their work in class. no reviews | add a review
