There’s No Place Like Space: All About Our Solar System (Cat in the Hat’s Learning Library)

Au revoir, Pluto! In this newly revised, bestselling backlist title, beginning readers and budding astronomers are launched on a wild trip to visit the now eight planets in our solar system (per the International Astronomical Union’s 2006 decision to downgrade Pluto from a planet to a dwarf planet), along with the Cat in the Hat, Thing One, Thing Two, Dick, and Sally. It’s a reading adventure that’s out of this world!The perfect first space book for those almost-readers, There’s No Place Like Space takes us on a whirlwind tour of our solar system, with a few constellations thrown in for good measure. Cat in the Hat (along with beloved Thing One and Thing Two) straps on his space suit and rhymes his way among the nine planets, presenting important facts along the way. Where else could your preschooler learn phonics and astronomy at same time? “A planet can have satellites that surround it. Uranus has lots of these objects around it” is just one example. This is a fine addition to the library of any young stargazer–few books are written with this many facts furnished in such an easy-reading manner. (Preschool to early reader) –Jill Lightner
