The Playful Planet Books
Reading is
a discount ticket to anywhere ... including
space.
There are three books in the Playful Planets
children's book series.
In the first book The
Playful Planets say Hello and Watch the Rocket
the planets introduce themselves and watch a
rocket ship from Earth fly through space, worrying
about who it will land on. "They
say they reach for the stars, but they only ever
seem to get this far!" moans Marvin, the
miserable Man in the Moon. "All
the rubbish they leave after every trip, I'm
starting to feel like the local tip!"
The second book The
Playful Planets and The Days of the Week
teaches children the days of the week as well as
the names of the planets. The days are named after
the planets in many languages, and especially the
older languages of Latin derivation. For this
reason many of the Spanish and French day names
also get a mention.
The title of the third book The Playful Planets Behaving Badly
is self explanatory. With a creative slant, the
planets interact in a manner similar to how they
are portrayed in mythology. It all starts when
Mickey Mercury, the mischievous messenger,
attempts to deliver some bad news to Mr Bully,
Mars, who takes exception. He blames Mickey
Mercury for putting him in a bad mood. "Don't
shoot the messenger," responds Mickey. "I
like to deliver the news. It's not my fault
you've got a short fuse..."
Space books for kids
Kids love space. This unique book
series is ideal for all inquisitive children aged
3-7. Learning should be fun.
