Welcome to Litsy!

“You live on a planet named Earth. Eorth goes around the Sun, and the path it takes is called an orbit.”

The fact that this book is written by an author with a PhD makes this book even more amazing. This is because they studied these topics and you know for a fact that you‘re getting a slew of amazing facts and statistics presented in a way that‘s appropriate for children. I also like how the images in this book are simple but show exactly what‘s being discussed.

This book takes you through our universe and does a great job of discussing the different parts that make up that universe. The book does shy away from using the more scientific names for the different aspects. The book also uses the scientific names of the planets moons. The book also includes fun facts at the bottom of the page to try to put in perspective the things you‘re learning about.

This NF book would be a great IR book. Any student that is interested in Space would love this book, with its fun facts about all the planets in our solar system. This book could also be used as reference material for a science lesson on space and planets.
ESOL strategy 29 offer a variety of reference materials at the students‘ instructional level for independent use is perfect for this IR.
