Dr. E's Super Stellar Solar System by Bethany Ehlmann -- ESSENTIAL

Dr. E's Super Stellar Solar System: Massive Mountains! Supersize Storms! Alien Atmospheres! by Bethany Ehlmann and Jennifer Swanson128 pgs. NONFICTION. National Geographic Kids, 2018. $13.

BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS -- ESSENTIAL.

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

This guide to the solar system is full of information on planets, stars, comets, and many other celestial phenomena.

The writing style works well, packing in a lot of fascinating info in a fun, approachable, concise style. Photos, graphics, sidebars, and even comic strips make the text even more approachable and interactive. I only wish it were available in a library binding, or even hardcover, since paperbacks do not last as long on our shelves.
