Earth
From the Set Spot Our Solar System
Earth--home sweet home. Developing readers find out what makes our planet unique in this low-level search-and-find beginning reader.
With liquid water and an abundance of life, Earth has many features that we have yet to find anywhere else in the universe. Early readers discover new vocabulary about Earth's geography and space features, such as the moon and satellites that orbit this blue planet.
A search-and-find feature reinforces new concepts to build reading success while close-up images captivate young astronomers. A great early STEM book to inspire science learning for kindergartners and first graders.
Spot Our Solar System - School Library Journal
This series uses a look-and-find approach designed to build the confidence of early readers as they master new vocabulary. Four key terms are presented at the beginning of each title along with a picture identification for each word. Those terms are shown in an orange circle on the page where they appear in the text. Readers will also know they should look for the identifying image within the accompanying photo. Large-scale photographs throughout the book relate directly to the facts being presented. Close-up views of each planet, some of the moons and other characteristics, and even photos of probes sent to study the planets are included. A final answer key shows the photos with the image for each vocabulary word circled—just in case any prove difficult to find. VERDICT Perfect for early readers, with simple text and engaging photos plus the twist of a scavenger hunt.
