* Reviews *
These books pack a lot of current information into a few pages. Starting with ideas on the beginnings of the various heavenly bodies, they move to what we already know and then on to future exploration. Color illustrations abound, and each title includes quick facts. There seems to be a resurgence of interest in space exploration, so books on that topic are likely to be popular. Sentence length is fairly short, making for easy reading. Most students will be able to read one of these books in a night or two. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites.
