Space

One of the Space Launch! titles from Weekly Reader for young readers. Diagrams and photographs accompany the interesting text, answering basic questions and providing foundational information for young learners. A glossary follows the text, supporting reader learning and understanding. A strength of the series is the presentation of information in such a way as to capture the young reader’s interest

Young readers investigate Earth, investigate how the movements of its plates cause earthquakes and volcanoes, and discover how robots help explore Earth’s deepest oceans. Topics in this book include exploring Earth, Earth in history, the Moon and satellites, on the surface, Earth’s crust, changing temperatures, and much, much more.

Highly recommended. ( )
