Transparencies showing the planets of our solar system are the focus of this Reader's Digest Young Families book which is part of a "See-Through" series of informative books about topics that intrigue young readers. The transparencies, which each show a planet and collectively show the solar system, are encased in heavy, almost board-weight pages that increase the durability of the book. The information is presented in both narrative and fact-file fashion accompanied by a variety of illustrations and graphics in addition to the transparencies. While there's nothing new or startlingly unique about this book, it is a compact introduction to the planets with slightly more information than you'd expect in a young readers' resource book. 1998, (orig.Book Details
