Hello, World! Solar System
Hello, World! Solar System. This book is definitely a favorite in our home! The graphics are cute and very appealing for kids, and the information about the planets is kept very simple and easy for young kids to understand. I especially love that this book just sticks with the basic facts and doesn’t teach evolution at all.
