Older readers visit each of the planets in the solar system, learning fascinating facts about each as they travel along. Then, past Pluto, they turn and look back at Earth. Several pages of information, photographs, and interesting facts comprise the section for each planet. Following the trip through the solar system, there is a planet chart and a glossary to support the information included in the text.
With good basic information and full-color illustrations of the planets, readers show more interested in space science will find this book a wonderful way to learn basic facts about the planets and some of the moons of the solar system.

Why Do Women Crave More Sex in the Summer?: 112 Questions That Women Keep Asking- and That Keep Everyone Else Guessing by Patricia Barnes-Svarney
woman oriented, lots of interesting facts and explanations. However, the title is misleading. It is not just about sex.
This is a great book to have available during a study on the solar system. The information is fact based and the pictures are great. It takes readers on a journey of discovery through the solar system.

Yet another of those books I got free while joining some book club or another. Never grabs my interest when I open it up - maybe I'll need to know some of this some day, but I'm probably more likely to look it up on the Internet.
