**Solar System** by Hugo Wells is the 19th book in *The Alphabets of Science* series, a beginner-friendly astronomy book made for young readers to discover our cosmic home. Divided into fifteen chapters, the work walks through the full story of the solar system, starting with its formation 4.6 billion years ago from a spinning cloud of gas and dust known as the solar nebula, all the way to its position inside the vast Milky Way galaxy.Hugo Wells explains the Sun as the system's gravitational and energy-giving core. He describes the small, rocky inner planets and the huge gas and ice outer giants, plus many extraordinary moons: Jupiter's fiery Galilean moons, as well as Saturn's intriguing Enceladus and Titan. The book also examines ancient space leftovers including the asteroid belt, Pluto and other dwarf planets of the Kuiper Belt, and the remote Oort Cloud where long-period comets originate.A key theme is the search for alien life across promising ocean-rich worlds. It previews future space exploration missions and invites children to think about humanity's link to space. With fun "Hedgehog's Fact" snippets and a complete glossary, this book mixes clear scientific knowledge with a strong sense of wonder for the universe.
