The perfect picturebook to introduce little minds to big ideas!
Planets combines bold, colourful illustrations with jokes and incredible science facts to take young readers on a fun-filled journey across the solar system. On the way they will learn all about the planets, and find out the answers to such important questions as: Why does Venus smell so bad? Why aren't there many birthday parties on Neptune? and What would happen if you tried to eat your dinner on Mars?

Series Overview: This exciting new series is for younger readers that are targeted by science picturebooks currently on the market - think See Inside Atoms and Molecules, The Element in the Room or My First Book of Quantum Physics but for kids who are still reading with their parents.
