From School Library Journal:
Grade 3-6 Basic introduction to the Solar System, with about two-thirds of each page devoted to full-color drawings. One unusual feature is a map of the zodiac, with lists of when to look in which constellation for the highly visible planets during 1985-1990. This book is attractive, simplistic and optimistic, confidently predicting manned Mars expeditions and suggesting tourism to the rings of Saturn in the 21st Century, while mapping out a Solar System whose "to scale" drawings clearly show that the artist never read the author's tables of dimensions. These are common failings in an average, acceptable book. For the uncommon attempt to give readers an accurate idea of the planets' relative sizes and distances from the sun, try Franklyn M. Branley's The Planets in Our Solar System (Crowell, 1981). For the uncommon inspiration of an accurate simplification and beautiful photo essay, try Patricia Lauber's Journey to the Planets (Crown, 1982). Margaret L. Chatham, formerly at Smithtown Lib . , N.Y.
