Review by Horn Book Review

Dry, simple texts combine with photographs and diagrams to make these introductions to the moon and Venus accessible to young readers. Random ""fun"" facts (e.g., banging a drum while on the moon produces no sound because there's no air to carry it) along with clear comparisons provide just the right amount of information for the report-driven reader. Reading list. Glos., ind. [Review covers these First Facts: The Solar System titles: Venus and The Moon.] (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
