The book Jump Into Science: Sun is an engaging and playful book filled with fun facts and plenty of information about the sun. Throughout this book, we are led by two kids and a cat throughout space to learn more about the sun. The illustrations in this book are kid friendly while still remaining accurate. I think that this book would be a great read during a science unit on the solar system for children to learn more about the sun. Teachers can also incorporate projects and other science experience into their lesson about the sun based on the information and facts from the book. I like this book because it is an easy read, but it is also full of so much amazing information that kids will love and be fully engaged with.

Another excellent National Geographic book for kids. We used this as a part of our unit on changing seasons, but we will DEFINITELY check it out again when we do a unit on the solar system! ( )
