Editorial Reviews

"There is a big gap between 'concept' books written for preschoolers and nonfiction that requires fluent reading skills. The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library books introduce beginning readers to important basic concepts about the natural world. They provide the critical foundations upon which complex facts and ideas can eventually be build. In addition, The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library shows young readers that books can be entertaining and educational at the same time. This is a wonderful series!"

My son loves learning about space but does not jump up to have a book read to him. He loves this book. My son is easily distracted and I had his full attention throughout the whole story. Great book for kids.

Nice rhyming storybook. More for an older child, not a toddler, as the story would be too hard to follow (and it is a little complicated).

This book is amazing! My sons name is Orion and we love space. I love that my baby can learn about the planets and constellations. This book mentions the constellation Orion so I am really happy about that.
