Editorial Reviews

Review

“A delightful book, beautifully illustrated, that explains our solar system to kids in words they can understand. It offers some great analogies―for example, comparing the size of the Moon to that of a tennis ball to the size of the Earth as a little bigger than a basketball. The author has a Ph.D. in planetary science but can write at a level that is very accessible to kids.” ―Dr Rosaly M.C. Lopes, Senior Research Scientist at JPL and author of several books on volcanoes and planetary science

“Great exploration of the solar system! The vocabulary is defined clearly to make comprehension a breeze. Bright, colorful pictures engage the reader. Relatable comparisons help to make the content understandable. This is the 4th book I have read by this author, and I am always impressed at how well he speaks to kids without speaking down to them. I wish I’d had this book when my kids were writing their solar system reports when they were in the 3rd grade. I can’t wait for my students to get their hands on this!”
―Kathy Proctor, 2nd grade teacher

“Here’s the perfect book for introducing preschoolers and slightly older kids to the wonders of our solar system. The language is perfect for curious young scientists like my four-year-old grandson. The text is seasoned with many of the author’s trademark Random Space Facts, while the mix of beautiful astrophotography and artists’ drawings make
My First Book of Planets a visual delight.” ―Mat Kaplan, Host and Producer of Planetary Radio

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for curious kids

M.W. · October 5, 2025

Very educational but still simple enough for little learners. I love that it is a readable story and not just an overwhelming list of facts.

5.0 out of 5 stars For Your Space-Obsessed Kiddo

H. · October 13, 2025

One of my kids is absolutely obsessed with space and the planets right now, so I bought this for her to have at bedtime. It’s something that’s still entertaining to her even if I’m not reading it to her, because she can name the planets as she flips through. It’s a very nice age-appropriate yet thorough introduction to the cosmos for a little kid!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great!

A.E. · June 26, 2025

I love this book. It’s informative, has good pictures, is a step beyond a board book, and is t too long when you’re reading to a kid. The planets are pictured in a realistic way. My 3.5 loved reading it with me though it is appropriate for much older kids as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Gift

A.C. · October 7, 2025

This book is a great gift for little kids because it gives them a wider variety of information to learn. And when I gifted it to my little brother he was so exited.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to have.

This is a wonderful book. I love it. And My son loves it very much. The photos are very beautiful. The book is a perfect size. And he loves to read it and reread it. And he really has learned the planets, their order and the author has interesting background. I’m glad this will get this. He is 10 and so doesn’t want to give it up.
