There's No Place Like Space: All About Our Solar System (Cat in the Hat's… (1999 original; edició 1999)

With the Cat in the Hat as our guide, we are off to visit the planets, the stars, and the sun. First, we’ll visit the eight planets in our solar system, then we’ll play a star dot-to-dot game to see the constellations. Then we’ll see our sun and Earth’s moon where we’ll learn about the astronauts exploring there.

The Cat in the Hat has a present for us so that we will be able to look up in the sky and discover something new. What could it be?

Highly recommended. ( )

This book is all about space and the objects that reside within space. The solar system is the topic that I enjoy most in this book. The Cat in the Hat goes through the planets eloquently. I would use this book as an introduction to a lesson on our solar system. ( )

It begins with Cat in the Hat picking up the kids to go on a trip to space. Cat introduces the order of the solar system, and explains some facts. Mentions constellations, and even talks about a little bit about the moon landing. My favorite part of this book is that it gives vocabulary and definition at the back of the book. This book keeps this topic simple, and fun to read, but it would be a introductory book only. ( )

This fun and illustrative Dr. Seuss book tells students all they need to know about space! Planets, constellations, and stars are all discussed throughout this kid-friendly and informative picture book. Students in an upper elementary school science class will appreciate the pictures and simplicity of the writing style. ( )

This is such a great informational picture book! This book is about the Cat in the Hat and two children taking a visit to space to learn about the solar system! This is intended for an audience who is interested in the solar system! The pictures were very detailed! ( )
