Colorful drawings encourage young readers to turn a brightly colored transparent page to reveal the Earth revolving around the Sun, in a sturdy board book.

Reviews

PreSchool-Grade 3-- A lot of different concepts are presented in this brief, simply worded text. Topics introduced include the distribution of land and water on the Earth's surface, its layered structure, volcanic activity, its movement around the sun, the phases of the moon, and the planets of the solar system. Seven mylar transparencies serve as overlays that reveal a different aspect of the scene being depicted. A special feature is the covered spiral binding, which allows each transparency to lie flat and align perfectly with the pages on both the left and right sides. The graphics are attractive, and the format has definite child appeal, but the science may raise more questions than it answers in its 24 pages. That's fine if it stimulates curiosity and leads children to more thorough treatments of The Earth and Sky.
